The Takeaway Podcast

Episode 36! This week, we're joined by Joanne Roehm, Director of LaughFest in Grand Rapids.  LaughFest is a 10 day comedy festival that encompasses a variety of different shows, all for the purpose of sharing laughter.  The festival is put on by Gilda's Club, which is a non-profit organization that provides free emotional healthcare to all people that are going through a journey with cancer or other traumatic experiences.  During our conversation, we discuss the mission of LaughFest, what emotional health is, what goes into running a festival, and the changing landscape of comedy.  Tune in! Support LaughFest:Events & TicketsPodcastWebsiteFollow the hosts!Vincent:TwitterInstagramSam:TwitterInstagramOur Socials:TwitterInstagramYoutube
