Hosting the Sunday writer’s mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7TqHIzZq6A

0m19s Stare out into the audience while moving the mic stand

1m37s Change to “she also complained”

2m49s Say the line harder

3m08s Say “I’m an organ donor. Just yesterday I donated…”

3m38s Rephrase to “You’d be surprised how often Jesus would use…”

4m01s Rephrase to “The only place I kill at is…”

4m48s Say the cat line towards the start of the bit

Overall: A lot of the newer jokes are almost there, they just need some rephrasing

The 8PM show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xalpIikHYS4

1m32s Interesting that it’s a slow laugh that keeps going

2m42s Nice

4m39s She said “Wait a minute, I can’t breathe” and I broke character for a second. Don’t break character

11m33s I should do the crazy laugh when that line doesn’t get a laugh

Overall: This was the strongest the dark persona has done. I was getting laughs before I even started talking.

Friday 8pm show for 15-20 people

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVH-WD_kngI

1m17s I could’ve held off on the door money line for a few minutes

1m34s Say “everyone knows” first

6m00s Great time for that line

6m23s More emphasis on “that”

7m11s No need for the surround sound line

Overall: Decent set.

An open mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWN0RAMF_lY

1m35s Try “she also complained” instead

4m30s Pause for an extra two seconds before puppies, so it’s more random

5m38s Rewrite or cut the survivor joke

Overall: Standard open mic.

A bar show for 12-15 people

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgQCulVbhd4

2m33s Cut the “unwise” line

5m22s Good job waiting for the laugh

7m24s Good job handling the heckle in character

10m15s Try saying, “just making sure”

Overall: Good set. That persona helped make a loud bar fairly quiet.
