Everything: I love writing bits and putting everything in the right order, I love the fact that there’s a lot of psychology involved, I love that you can watch something mundane from a different angle and suddenly it becomes hilarious, I love to make people laugh with topics that used to make them uncomfortable, I love that it taught me that you can always laugh about shit when it happens and I love that (with a little bit of self-inflicted discipline) puts my ADHD to good use.
I think it’s the perfect balance between insight and technique.
Do you get stage fright?
Back when I started, I used write “BREATHE” in big capital letters on my notes, so I would remember to do that while frantically reading and panicking before a set. Now that I’m more experienced I don’t get it as much, but there’s still a little bit of it, like a background noise. “Just enough to keep you focused” as a friend of mine says.
The cool thing is that it always goes away the very moment you start talking into the microphone.
What do you like about it? Do you get stage fright?
