Jimmy sits down with stand-up comedian, filmmaker, and podcaster Josh Francis—co-creator of the viral medieval sketch series Off With Their Heads and host of the Friendly Fire podcast.Josh shares the chaotic journey from holding onto one sketch for five years to launching one of the most unique comedy projects coming out of Austin. We get deep into the DIY spirit, comedy perfectionism, and the growing pains of running a full-scale production with $0 and a dream. Also: the origin of the King Arthur’s ”tiny sword” sketch, why gay men are the most honest fashion critics, how to trick YouTube’s algorithm with good lighting, and what it's really like directing the wild magic of Casey Rocket.If you're a comedy nerd, a filmmaker, or just want to feel bad about how little you’ve gotten done—this one’s a banger.📍 Chapters01:41 – Off With Their Heads04:57 – The first sketch: King Arthur and the tiny sword08:28 – Letting go of perfectionism & SNL dreams10:24 – Finding your voice by accident12:02 – The Good Girl Studios era & YouTube success14:49 – The “right” way to make comedy vs. what actually works18:45 – The ad deal that kicked it all off20:54 – Reverse engineering a narrative around sketches23:21 – Building characters and throughlines on the fly25:08 – Writing to character vs. just writing jokes26:34 – Spencer & Josh’s dynamic as squires28:26 – Casey Rocket as a sketch comedy chaos engine30:11 – Riffing vs. sticking to the script36:11 – How budget forces creativity38:18 – Hiring pros over your girlfriend (sorry Ariel)40:35 – Why production quality matters more than ever43:16 – Creators need deadlines and discipline44:29 – Nobody’s using the power they actually have46:00 – What Josh actually wants from all this👇 Check Out Josh Francis📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GoodGirlStudios📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshfranciscomedy/💥 Support the Show & Unlock Bonus ContentPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/thejimmyclifford🧢 Follow JimmyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejimmyclifford/Twitter: https://x.com/notjimcliffordTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thejimmyclifford📢 SPONSORSWant to sponsor Pastor Bullsht*?
