Comedy Q&A: Fung Ku (Jason Webb and Wade Jackson)

Comedy duo Fung Ku demonstrate their best martial arts moves.

Why should we see your show?

Wade: Because it's damn funny! We've strayed away from the improv path into the world of scripted comedy.

Jason: It's a Kung Fu epic comedy with weapons, fight scenes and a goat!

Tell us a joke in 25 words or less.

Jason: Why do giraffes have long necks? Because their feet stink.

Wade: Dude, that's bad.

What makes you laugh out loud?

Wade: Usually kids. They crack me up with the stuff they come out with.

Jason: People's reactions when they get fired from The Apprentice.

Wade: And Calvin & Hobbes. Best cartoon ever.

What's the worst line you've ever delivered?

Wade: Any joke with giraffes in it.

Jason: Hey, I didn't hear your joke.

What keeps you awake at night?

Wade: Internet Backgammon

Jason: The pressure of coming up with a funny joke under 25 words or less.

What were you like as a child?

Wade: Quiet yet not, normal looking yet somewhat striking, superficial yet deep, simple yet complicated and I was always able to give a clear answer to any question.

Jason: Fijian.

When were you last embarrassed and what was the cause?

Jason: Last night. When I could only pleasure my girlfriend for the fourth time instead of the usual six. It's been a tough week.

Wade: About a minute ago when Jason said "Because their feet stink".

Without looking it up, give us a scientific explanation of laughter.

Wade: An involuntary reaction that occurs when you find something funny

Jason: It's those times when you have a stupid sound coming out of your mouth but you don't care, as it keeps you warm and makes you feel good.

If you weren't a comedian you would be ... ?

Jason: A kick-ass salesperson.

Wade: Unhappy.
