Going last on the 8pm show with a light crowd

0m33s Get rid of “if you” so that it’s just “don’t ruin this for me”

3m35s Get rid of this part of the joke or change it up

5m44s Have a better response to that

6m44s That’s too forced don’t do that

6m51s I should use this line more often after I go too far

Part 2

0m35s Call out the person applauding for being a dick

1m22s That’s one of the stronger responses “neuro marketing” has gotten so I added “neuro comedy” too

Overall: Mediocre set but I finished stronger than I started and worked in three newer jokes.

2m43s Try doing the security questions before the bus

4m11s There’s better wording for this

5m35s Too bad this line won’t work anywhere else

6m34s Say “inflation”

Overall: Decent for a mic with eight comics. I did jokes that work to start and end the set and kept working out my new jokes in the middle.

1m55s Instead of rich not having a personality, go into a different joke, then come back to “by the way…”

3m34s Cut the synagogue line

4m05s This needs a stronger ending

4m41s Get rid of this whole American security part

Overall: Still working out new material. Some of it is really starting to hit, I just need to cut the fat.

The worst open mic in the city

0m39s Say “only available” instead of “available only”

2m02s This needs a stronger ending

Overall: The new material from this week needs more work but at least this mic went less bad than it usually does.

2m42s Don’t workshop while doing the joke or say how it did well before

3m42s Cut the synagogue question

4m27s Cut the whole America part

Part 2

0m15s I need a clearer setup

Overall: My new jokes mostly missed but the “Is-ra-el” line is really coming along strong. The 7 minutes of new material I did here needs to be cut down to 2.5 minutes and then it’ll be funnier.
