Stand Down ep6 – Jay Mays

"Outgrowing Yourself"

A lighter episode! Jay Mays did stand-up in Denver and Miami for almost a decade. After hitting a plateau, he realized he'd outgrown his act and was doing what worked instead of what excited him. Years later comedy is still a part of his life and Daniel finds him almost too well-adjusted. We talk self-honesty, why we get onstage, tips for making your digital shows and meetings better, and the time Daniel got punched by a stranger right before going onstage.
