Today I answer questions about comedy as I am interviewed by Josh Liston, host of Tips of the Slung and Punching Sideways podcasts. Josh is an avid listener of the School of Laughs podcast and noticed I left a few topics uncovered. He noted that occasionally I will say, "one day I should do a whole episode on that topic". But ... sometimes I never do. So, he made some notes and asks me to resolve those unanswered questions.

If Josh's voice sounds familiar, he was featured on Episode 216 "How Coivd Affects Comedy Across the Globe". In that show, I talked with folks in seven countries to find out what the lockdowns had done to their comedy scene.

So what questions about comedy do I finally answer?

What is the difference between skill and passion?

What goes into a comedy rider? What is the difference between sarcasm and comedy?

How do you identify your weaknesses as a comedian?

What groups like Toast Masters are there available to people who want to get extra stage time or story-telling experience?

What do you do when you have a joke that isn't like the rest of the act?
