    I like hearing about the inner workings of comedy clubs and comedy in general.
    Also. More large couches. Honestly replace all furniture with couches

    For all the "femme" energy of my favorite neurodivergent theater kids podcast, I can tell you were never middle school girls because we have the code name thing ON LOCK but by the time Paige tells y'all they you said the club name, you'd already said it twice. A middle school girl would nevaaar.
    You shoulda called it "Waffle House Comedy Club" 😂

    Most of us in any industry have worked in that ‘scum of the earth’ place when we were young/naive/desperate (I was all 3). Sounds like you got some good stories out of it that you can leverage on now in your career.
    I experienced that moment the other day at Kmart when the staff at the self checkout genuinely complimented me on my ability to fit my insane amount of 💩 in one trolley (that’s my mum life now), and it gave me the flashback of working at the supermarket at age 14 getting NZ$3.50/hr before tax. I worked a whole 6-8hr shift just to afford the piece of roast chicken and chocolate milk I would buy for my meal break 😆.

    If the club is out of business why do they have to change the name? I doubt anyone would sue over a defunct business.

      it's just common courtesy to not put people directly on blast because of the violent, screeching masses with their phones and their comment sections.

    This definitely was a bleepy one! 😅 I’d never really thought about the whole front row thing, I’d always just assumed the people in the front row wanted to be there, and never thought there could be a downside to it.

    It's great listening to the perspective of real comedians about the comedy club scene, and more about how marco used to suck apparently? I simply cannot imagine.

    Idk if this is McDonald’s- ht sounds awfully similar to a shitty comedy club I went to in Times Square called the LOL. Absolutely so distracting and jarring having cheques ran halfway through the sets.
    I can see how that environment makes you a better comedian by exposing you to a wide variety of customers / tourists who don’t necessarily understand comedy scene.
    Much prefer the London comedy clubs pmsl.

    I hate to say it, but Bill burr is like a one trick pony to me. Besides his "you can't hit women joke," I can't remember any of his jokes. There's some other guy who is only known for "black people love me and I love black people" jokes. And some woman who mainly does "dating stupid young guys is hard" jokes. I could be wrong, but if you know the 2 people whose name I forgot, it kinda proves my point. Lolz

      Gabriel Iglesias mainly has impressions and sound effects, but those only enhance his multiple memorable jokes. John Mulaney is just a really good storyteller.
