A Master’s in Jokes with Devon Walker - CHIT CHAT WEDNESDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

Jared is joined by Saturday Night Live cast member and stand-up comedian Devon Walker for their first-ever sit-down, and it’s instant chemistry.

The two dive deep into what it’s like performing stand-up on the college comedy circuit, share hilarious stories from their campus gigs, and unpack why college audiences can be both the easiest and trickiest crowds. Devon shares behind-the-scenes insights from SNL, what it’s like having a master’s degree in comedy (spoiler: it's mostly useless except for impressing dads), and how he juggles prestige with punchlines.

🎤 Topics include:

- The hidden money in college stand-up gigs

- Why being on SNL is the best resume item in comedy

- Getting mistaken for fictional colleges

- Navigating parties as a comedian (and when it gets old)

- Whether that pricey graduate degree is worth it

If you love stand-up comedy, behind-the-scenes SNL stories, college life, or just two comics chopping it up with real talk, this episode delivers laughs and insight in equal measure.
