How Comedians Make Up, Write, & Test Out Jokes

It’s Episode #53 of “The Messed-Up To Set-Ups” Podcast, which means it’s also part 2 of my chat with comedian Daniel Quintero. In this episode, we engage in a lively discussion about the intricacies of joke writing, we workshop one of Daniel’s original jokes, then we spend some time making up jokes on the spot. Tune in for a pretty candid conversation filled with humor, insights, and practical tips for aspiring comedians wondering how to navigate the world of stand-up comedy.

PS: If you’re seriously interested in trying stand-up, the best place to start is learning how to write jokes. You can do that by taking my online course, “The Joke Writer’s Lab,” HERE.
