Saturday night show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFIbhknSwL0

0m44s Shrug my shoulders before saying the line

3m58s Get angrier in the mom act out

Overall: Solid set with good laughs throughout.

Saturday open mic

0m33s Cut this joke

1m22s Act out each picture being shown with some motion

1m37s Slow down, a lot

3m33s The first part of the Netflix joke is good, then it’s useless until the “scratched” line

Overall: I need to slow down on the vacation photos joke and the Netflix joke will be good if I get rid of the middle part.

A Friday Night Benefit Show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwCrQq6uA-0

1m01s Make a bigger arm motion and bigger facial expression

2m47s That’s one of the funniest responses I’ve ever heard from an audience member

4m23s The mom act out should’ve been angrier

5m11s Good job waiting for them to laugh after “Jehovah’s witnesses”

5m52s Cut the “pamphlet” line

6m36s I should learn to not do the rest of this joke if “perfect” doesn’t get a big laugh

7m05s Bad save line in this situation

7m11s Luckily the Carrot Top line saved the set from ending terribly

Overall: I had a great first 6 minutes and a terrible last minute. The big thing I learned is, if you’re doing a benefit show for some medical charity, avoid suicide and abortion jokes. (Yes, this is obvious in retrospect.)

An open mic with seven or eight comics

1m14s Try doing this just saying “millionaire” instead of “multi-millionaire”

6m46s Rephrase to “I’ve already scouted her”

Overall: If you wanna see most of my “darker” jokes, this is a good set to watch.

A basement restaurant show with a small 5 to 7 person audience

0m20s Don’t open with the ex on the street

1m46s Be a little more playful when saying this

4m38s Good example of “yes and-ing” a statement, even when I’m already wrong

Overall: Eh. Nothing special. When the crowds are this small I need to be more informal and not start in straight with material…
