About

Modest Proposal is the collaboration between Ron Babcock and Ryan McKee. It began in 2004, when they started their independent comedy magazine. It evolved into Live Shows, Videos, and a Website. Together they’ve perfomed at the Las Vegas Comedy Festival and San Francisco Sketchfest, won publishing awards, and produced viral videos for HBO, Upright Citizen’s Brigade, and the film Sex Drive. They update the site regularly. Please read the backlog of interviews and features at Magazine.
