rabbitHOLE Improv

By: Billy Merritt
  • Summary

  • An international cast uses their personal digital odyssey stories to inspire hilarious improvised scenes. You know... one moment, you're searching the origins of the French horn, and the next, you're on an obscure webpage obsessing over the migratory patterns of penguins. Time is of NO essence. Before you know it, hours have evaporated, and you're an armchair expert on everything from ancient Sumerian bread recipes to the biomechanics of dragonfly wings. Welcome to the world of endless clicks, where curiosity isn't just satisfied—it's insatiable. (The “Rabbit Hole” is a long-form improv format developed by Billy Merritt for The BIT Comedy Network.)

  • Stuff Astronauts Like | Accentuating the Positive | Faking Your Religion
    Jan 13 2025

    Welcome to SEASON TWO of rabbitHOLE!!!

    Please resolve to listen and share every episode (please, please, pretty please)!

    Today's Holes:

    • Stuff Astronauts Like
    • Accentuating the Positive
    • Faking Your Religion

    BIT Founder/Director/Leader BILLY MERRITT takes the helm by painting a vivid and endlessly hilarious picture of Florida's "SPACE COAST." Please help us answer the age-old question, "How many TIKI BARS are too many?"

    Jason shares "letters from Gramps" about stick-to-it-iveness. Brett reminisces about accidentally reciting a sexist passage from an H.R. Hubbard book his Mom gave him.

    Deema confesses to faking his way through religious rituals to keep peace in the family until he can't take it anymore. Once he declares his authentic belief (or disbelief in his case), his father accuses him of being a communist, and everything goes back to normal. Thea confesses to participating in a religious rite of passage only for the money gifts. DO NOT judge her!

    APOLOGIES: NASA, Tang, Scatting, the planets Mars, Venus, and Penis, the Astronauts Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and Matt, the professions of bartender, doctor, and lawyer, Elon Musk, mermaids, all organized religions, women, tigers, Bing Crosby, the GRAMMYs, and the entire Hubbard family.

    As always, rabbitHOLE is unscripted and inspired by the CREW's real-life rabbit hole adventures.

  • Crime Families | Line Cutting | Pickleball Gangs | Beekeeping Age
    Dec 31 2024

    Welcome to rabbitHOLE's Season One Finale/New Year's Eve Bonus Episode. The last rabbit holes of 2024 include:

    • Archaic Japanese Crime Families
    • Theater Hopping + Line Cutting
    • Pickleball Gangs
    • Bee Keeping Age

    Konrad visits Kobe, Japan, and delves into the very expensive (and ultra-marbled) beef for which it is known. He discovers the "real Kobe's" criminal underbelly with its aging membership and inevitable demise. Laura admits to working at a movie theater and infers that if you are cool about it, hopping from theater to theater MIGHT be tolerated. Hill may disagree, but we can all agree that Jason's dad was a line hopper and that's NOT okay! Is "Bee Keeping Age" a new colloquialism for "person of a certain age?"

    The answers you seek lie within this episode.

    APOLOGIES: The Yakuza "Social Network," Shakshuka, World History (specifically the Greek and Roman Empiracal eras, Hill's Dad + Jason's Dad, Movie Theaters, the United Nations (again), Pickleball, Pickling, Beekeeping, Circuses, Lions, Tigers, Ligers, Sovereign Citizens, and a few others we probably forgot to mention.

    As always, rabbitHOLE is unscripted and inspired by the CREW's real-life rabbit hole adventures.

  • Charlie Chaplin | Fabric Power Rankings | Mascot Abuse | The Great Muppet Caper
    Dec 13 2024

    In rabbitHOLE's eighth episode, the BIT CREW heads down some interesting holes, including:

    • Charlie Chaplin
    • Fabric Power Rankings
    • Mascot Abuse
    • The Great Muppet Caper

    Luke starts us off with a twisty tale beginning with the 1089 albums you must listen to before you die, (Anyone else a fan of Ogden Nuts Gone Flake? What about Stanley Unwin? Nope? Maybe?) a visit to the GOON SHOW, and then some forgotten facts about the Little Tramp. We also learned that Jason may or may not have a fabric fetish. Multiple cast members suffered physical abuse from mean kids when wearing mascot costumes. Flannery attempts to get ANIMAL (the Muppet) the recognition he deserves. Brent reveals his favorite movie is indeed the Great Muppet Caper and proceeds to BIT-splain Dr. Teeth and the Mayhem.

    It's a wild ride - we're glad you're on it with us.

    APOLOGIES: Sweeden (once again), non-angry poets, Burlap to Cashmere (a real band), Banana Republic (sponsor us?), the colors purple and bone, Hanes, cotton, suede, WhiteCastle, Poutine, Canada, beat poets, the Easter Bunny, cheese sandwiches, and whoever should have been on this list but was inadvertently omitted.

    As always, rabbitHOLE is unscripted and inspired by the CREW's real-life rabbit hole adventures.
