Show Notes

The absoute comedy killing machine Brian Scott Mcfadden stops by and I tell him how I used to be intimidated to work him because of how hard he crushes. He then talks about the importance of having fool proof closing bits because audiences tend to only remember the last things you say. We go on to discuss all kinds of comedy nuiances, like does the order of the lineup matter? What kind of music should be played before the show? And should comics watch the performers before them? We close by discussing how comics have been using " I can't talk about anything anymore," as an excuse not to be creative.  It's a great conversation with one of New york City's great closers.
