Parlay comedy experience to get noticed

Parlay comedy experience to get noticed

Hi Dave – I’m in a big city, have gotten invites and done showcases (not at comedy clubs), have a professionally shot ten minute set, ordered business cards, and am set to headline a C-level club three hours from my city. My question is this, are there ways to parlay this experience into getting noticed by agents or bookers or NACA? If so how? I know networking is the best way and I’ve made some…

if you wanna listen to naddpod you should know this about the hosts: brian murphy is a straightman to his inner most core and he's the funniest person alive, these things exist simultaneously and would not exist without the other. emily axford is clinically insane to a point where it's easier to not try to follow her logic when she says things. jake hurwitz is a certified cool guy but he's the biggest loser in a room of nerds playing dungeons and dragons. caldwell tanner can only be described as exactly what a 1930's cartoon describes as a rascal. three of them are a throuple and the fourth is their boss.

Is it hot up here or did I just wear my binder longer than the allotted 8 hours? HEY-O

just kidding I dont wear a binder

Had a whole fucking Olive Garden drama go down on my phone...in my head...

I live in Michigan. So ONE number wrong, and someone can call/text me (like anybody) with the same area code.

Nowhere near Auburn Hills, MI. Texts from Olive Garden of Auburn Hills.

'Your table is read! Please see our hosts. Enjoy your meal!' 6:27 pm.

Me: Oh fuck, I hope they are checking in once in a while just in case they missed their phone's texts.

'Your estimated wait time is coming to an end. We will hold your spot for the next 5 minutes. Please check in at the host stand when you arrive.' 6:33 pm.

Me: Wait, they might not even BE there? What is going on? Is there an emergency? Is someone dying? What the fuck is going on!?

'Sorry to see you go. We have removed you from the waitlist. If you feel this is in error, please visit the host stand.' 6:58 pm.

Did you actually SEE them go? WHO KIDNAPPED THIS FAMILY? What if they are just a LITTLE LATE, NOT THEIR FAULT, starving, and this is grandma's favorite restaurant, on her BIRTHDAY, and she CLEARLY ain't living till the next one? You gonna fuck with granny!?

...and this is me, with everything, forever. lol the good, the funny, with the bad, cuz part of me still is wondering...

ps-Yes, I do know this sounds eerily similar to a stand up comedian's joke regarding this, but this did just happen, and that is what I thought. My brain is...different. hahaha. Also my ending is better and original. Honestly? A lot of comedians claim joke stealing, but funny story. When I lived in Los Angeles, I did stand up for a bit. HATED IT. OMG. You have to pander to each and every crowd. Fuck that. Also they're usually shitfaced*, which makes the wittier jokes not take. I don't care how egotistical it sounds: you came here for me, not me for you. Anyways, I saw a billboard about AIDS testing, and it was the worst ad I ever saw. It looked WAY too much like the younger guy was getting tested....for his mom. WHY? It was creepy. So I wrote this WHOLE bit about that specific billboard. Go to an open mic. Swear to you, guy just before me gets on stage, and does a bit that sounds...60-70% almost exactly like I had already written it about that specific billboard (I told you it was fucking weird). I HAD NEVER PERFORMED IT. Didn't even write it online. Only on paper. I know he didn't steal it cuz...he'd have to of hacked my brain. So...my point is great minds DO think alike. And I BOMBED cuz I had to think of a whole new bit in minutes...my fault. Should have written more. I hope that guy went on to do more funny things. Sincerely; he was awesome. Couldn't tell you his name for the life of me. Those 3 years are a blur...

*Minimum drink purchase? FUCK YOU.

Time. Isnt. Reaaaal

A friend wants to be your manager - good idea?

Hi Dave – I have a friend who thinks I’m funny and can make it big as a stand-up comedian. I’m going to take a comedy workshop and then she’s going to be my manager. Good idea. Right? – F.C. Let’s do this? Hey FC – Good idea? Maybe a fun idea, but that’s as far as I’ll go with an endorsement right now. And before you and your friend start calling me a party-pooper (or worse) here’s why… Quite…
