Karson and Kennedy, MIX 104.1, Boston with Karson’s Testosterone-Fest
Nothing beats self-deprecating humor. It’s disarming when a talent feels comfortable enough to share a story of a fail and allows others in and out of the studio to mock them. Sometimes the best character development comes from your flaws and weaknesses. Masters at this are Karson and Kennedy, MIX 104.1, Boston. Karson boasted to some golf buddies about his son’s lacrosse team. Then his testosterone started to show and it got uncomfortable. Break one includes Karson’s wife, Lana, who’s always money because she puts Karson in his place and the audience loves it. Quick note – listen to the first 15 seconds of the first break and hear how Karson teases that his wife is coming up before he tells the story to build anticipation and hold on to listeners. Break two are listeners chiming in to advance the story line. All around, smart, unique, funny character development.
