I think Joe Rogan's podcast talks about comedy a good amount.

I was actually going to listen to it, but the file is gone. Also, the world is full of haters, and this sub-forum is no exception. Welcome.

I explain that I don't really have "jokes" like street jokes, then I offer to tell them about my vasectomy. It is probably a good thing that I am not seeking long-term employment.

I am with you. What are you thinking of doing to try to overcome it? I save new ideas for a room where I feel most confident and I know the comics won't turn on me for doing a couple of shitty jokes.

Why is this bad advice? If people don't do this aren't they pandering? I get that the guy who gave the advice is an idiot, but that doesn't make him wrong.

I have been in Austin for a couple months and I enjoy all of the stage time available. But, I have noticed something interesting which is new to my experience. There are certain open mic venues where...

I live in my car in Austin. It is fine, depending on your car. I recommend a 1998 Honda Civic or 2000 Olds Alero as they have both served me well. I have a nice quiet parking space with wifi for $0....

Go to Portland. Or come to Austin. I have been here for a month and a half and really like it. There are enough open mics that you can do six sets a week, possibly more once you are good enough, with...

maybe try it like this:

it just seems too long with the explanation up front. I would put the same emphasis on mom/cheryl and would really draw out would you please

I also thought of this:

Sorry Vercetti. I don't blame you for leaving the stage. I also think that story illustrates how important the host/mc is for a show. If someone with some gravitas gets on stage first and sets the...

I am all for insulting audiences and repeating something until getting pulled off stage, but you shouldn't have thrown the mic down, you could have broken it. After watching a couple of your Youtube...

In poker they say that if you can't spot the fish at your table, you're probably the fish.

I have never seen any disturbed performers...

HILARIOUS!

I sincerely love you.

Erik,
I think your advice for people to deal with hecklers is admirable, but I think that it only applies to other performers that fit into your archetype. Most of the time in my experience, a...

If you find something on your note card that is funny and you make people laugh, then you are doing your job. But, uppity fucks that are your comedy overlords may look down on you for using such a...

good episode. I enjoy Nate's style very much.

congratulations to you Cole, and I am happy to see UYD on this list as well. They seem like the most underappreciated of the brilliant podcasts I listen to weekly. And they are even better because...

I think there should be another topic started by a more seasoned LA comic called "Ending up in Porn"

I know it is a small detail, but you are talking about competitions, not festivals. Aside from that, I can think of one business reason to want as many locals in the competition, they bring in...

Tom, along with PG, I would like to warmly welcome you to AST. PG's just mad that no one has mentioned his comedy album yet.

And I think we should share Andrew Dice Clay's "The Day the Laughter...

You could just mail Fox a check and put I :heart: Bob's Burgers on the memo line. They will take your money.

When I visited, I found an open mic on this website.

Let me interrupt all of this light talk by saying that I will be going to an open mic for the 4th night in a row tonight! And I have been able to ride my bike to all of them. Free comedy! I love...

That sounds like it was a great moment. Did you have that line in your head already?
