This is the 10:30 and I’m MCing

0m27s I think over the last two days I’ve learned not to open with this joke
2m45s One of these days I’ll be able to make jokes while doing crowd work
4m02s I should reuse “I’m smarter then I look”
5m20s If someone groans my better response is “when someone groans I can’t tell if they’re a child molester or… a child molester”
6m08s I pointed to my hickee
Overall: I warmed up the crowd and got a few good laughs. When the room isn’t packed, that’s the best I hope for as an MC. I also shouldn’t ever open a set with the “ex on the street” joke.
Part 2 – The Check Spot
This is the same show as the previous post, but this is me doing the check spot. When the show is running on or ahead of schedule, the MC will do the check spot (the time when everyone gets their checks and pays the waitresses).

1m08s Nobody is really listening, this is why the MC should do the spot, as they’ve already done their normal material
1m52s The previous comic made it a little awkward with that group
2m46s I decided to talk over the conversations because they’re paying their bill
Overall for the Checkspot: I don’t mind doing the check spot when I’m the MC, but it’s not exactly a spot to learn which of your material works.
