These two are married to the game in more ways than one.
The Love & Comedy is a weekly podcast where comedians Drew Shafer and Aurora Singh discuss love and comedy with their colorful comedian friends. Their in-depth interviews answer the questions everyone wants to know about dating while pursuing a career in stand-up comedy.
The twist? Not only are they married to the stage, they’re married to each other!
Drew Shafer: Drew Shafer got his start in comedy when he tried out for his 3rd-grade talent show as a comedian and was told by his teachers that he should find new talent. Drew did what any other kid would do (not listen to his teacher) and continued doing comedy. Drew was the class president, a frequent pep rally host, and the emcee for many charity events throughout high school and college. Drew even qualified for the National Forensics League national tournament in student congress! He finally took the stage as a comedian in 2013 and hasn’t looked back since. Drew is a stand-up comedian, comedy writer, actor, and former rapping high school math teacher. Only one of those ever paid the bills, and it definitely wasn’t for the rapping. Drew blends self-deprecation, clever wordplay, and charming awkwardness to bring an energized and fun show everywhere he goes. Don’t be fooled by his resemblance to the secret love child of Drew Carey and Ellen Degeneres, Drew does have a dark side. He will have audiences saying both “aww” and “wow” in the same joke.
Aurora Singh: Aurora Singh blessed her immigrant parents with her arrival into the world in January 1992 and continuously doused her sparkle upon the world as she grew up in Sacramento, California in the good ol’ Catholic school system. You won’t regret the deep belly laughs you experience as a result of her hilarious straightforward real comedy. Eight years of comedy on her belt performing with great names like Kabir Singh (Kabeezy), Joey Diaz, Steve Simone, Taylor Tomlinson, and Felipe Esparza! Her mom has even been quoted saying, “she’s hilarious!” Ready to ride the giggle train? You won’t be disappointed!
On this week’s episode, Drew and Aurora sit down with comedian Morgan Gallo. What do Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Stagecoach all have in common? They’re NOT the festivals we discuss on this episode! Join us as we interview festival VET, Morgan Gallo, who has appeared in festivals all across the country and knows a thing or two because she’s seen a thing or two.
This episode is all about the most divisive comedy gathering, the comedy festival. Before we dive into Morgan’s experiences, we learn about dating comedy-adjacent partners (who happen to have met at a comedy festival) and finding the right guy at the right time. We then venture in to find out what makes festivals so great and why comedians should do them and discover Cleveland might be hiding something underneath all the hate it receives.
Then they play a quick round of “Pocketed Punchlines” that showcases Florida’s finest thinkers!
