Late night music and comedy

1m33s I should have the mom hold the mic from the side when I don’t use the mic stand
5m22s This isn’t material but maybe I can work something from this
9m01s The last five minutes was straight up therapy and now it’s back to jokes
Overall: The material didn’t work at the start but I got to talk about things that were bothering me without worrying about laughs. It’s crucial to have a room you can do that in.

0m18s The previous comic spoke in Japanese to start his act
2m34s That’s the right line for the chicken joke. Only took 5 rewrites.
3m19s Say the word “now” more abruptly
Overall: The new mom stuff is coming along and I found an ending for the chicken joke.

0m47s Cut that line altogether
2m08s Think of a different punchline
2m32s Don’t do the wet joke the first time that Blade comes out
3m59s Don’t hesitate mid sentence
Overall: The new mom bits did ok, everything else was weak

0m35s Say “he’s like” before “you’re making good points”
4m24s First time that’s gotten an applause break, good sign
5m25s Good save
6m34s Don’t do the secret thing until I get to the third time of being in the character
Overall: Eh, I had consistent small laughs throughout. I remember it going better in person.

1m56s The wording isn’t even close to right
2m27s Go with a more unexpected line than nurse outfit
3m19s Rephrase start to “If you want to make an omelet…”
4m29s Keep looking for the right punch line
Overall: Weak mic response.
