Going first on the 8pm show

1m35s I could’ve asked her if she was a philosophy major too
3m22s I should’ve given the plane punch line an extra second for a laugh
7m55s Decent job playing off of the situation even though it didn’t get a big laugh
Overall: Mediocrity at its finest. I should’ve gone into some crowd work or something caue the jokes were barely hitting.
Doing the check spot on a 10pm show

0m35s I should be more suave on the “hi”
0m58s Add in the “she’s like, that could be kinda fun”
2m05s Do a “clap it up for your wait staff” here since most people are focused on the check
3m54s Address the “ayyy yo”
5m10s Good job acknowledging the situation and bringing them back a little
7m05s Good improvised response
Part 2

0m20s Great job on this whole interaction
0m42s I wish I heard the guy who said “that’s her sister” that would’ve been even funnier
1m22s Well played
Overall: I ate it from minute 2 to minute 6 while people were focused on the bill then I slowly got it back and had some great crowd interactions based off of my jokes and even got some applause breaks. And I had a fun with their responses.
The 8pm show
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKz912U3u7k
0m25s Should’ve played off him saying “fella” that’s funny
1m08s This was the first time I tried this joke with a real crowd and it actually hit well
2m04s Good improvised line
3m59s Good job waiting for the laugh, it took them an extra second
5m36s Change it from “beatings tripled” to “neglect tripled”
6m59s Add in a “bring it”
7m20s The key is to pause for half a beat after “about”
Part 2
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2F9rNJbqzAg
0m24s Use the word “suspicious” as well as “weird” in there
1m03s Commit to the “pow pow pow” more
Overall: Real solid set, almost all of the punch lines on the new jokes worked
An open mic
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJhG1JuNJPg
0m32s Add “this would make for a great opium den”
3m04s Cut out this part of the joke and end it on “modern day Russia”
4m09s Add “how do” before “they know so young”
4m48s Playing off of what a comic said before
Overall: Weak. I need to try to bring the energy up when it’s low and not go lower energy than I already am.
Opening for a headliner at a college, about 60 in the audience
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8iKeiI6x8o
1m43s Do a little more crowd work there, or say another off the cuff line
2m18s Say the “maybe” angrier
3m48s Interesting that this laugh is bigger than “I remember being on the plane”
4m25s Think for an extra second before saying anything
7m11s Add a “no no no” before “I wasn’t gonna buy anything”
9m01s Could’ve done that a little earlier in the set
Part 2
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wceC4NihPDM
1m07s I need a bombing save line there and I knew not to do the second half of the Netflix joke but then I got greedy
Overall: Very solid set especially considering I went up first without an MC. The second half of the Netflix joke and the voting joke both missed but the other 12 minutes hit real well. I need to work on those two jokes.
