Show Notes

This week, we share a laugh with stand up comic Johnny Marx. We dive into the science behind crafting jokes, the differences in processing conceptual and personal material, and how Johnny manages to bridge the gap between his own voice and the styles of his comedic heroes. Johnny also stresses the importance of enjoying every stage of the comedic process; from writing to booking to hitting the stage. Want to learn how to escape the endless hamster wheel of bringer shows? THIS episode is for you. 

 

Johnny is a 50/50 alum and repeat attendee of the festival, and we couldn't be more grateful to have him in our orbit.
