A good question to ask the crowd is if anyone is celebrating anything, birthdays, anniversaries etc. Its a good way to include the audience and provides for jokes that can comeback as the show moves along

Another great article. It amazes me how many people do a terrible job hosting. It can be the downfall of a show. A great host can also be the saving grace. It is a powerful position to be in and should be taken seriously. Keep that show rolling forward nicely. You don’t want to end up in a position where the comics are giving you the light (I’ve actually seen this happen).
