Mark Brady Ep.1: Bombing, Breakthroughs, and Being Your Own Critic

Ray Durham Episode 53

This week, Ray sits down with stand-up comedian Mark Brady for a fun, honest chat about the ups and downs of comedy. They get into how bombing on stage is part of the grind, what it means to be your own toughest critic, and how Mark’s approach to writing jokes has evolved over the years. Mark also shares how winning a comedy contest early in his career added unexpected pressure. Plus, they dive into what “clean” and “dirty” comedy really mean—and Ray talks a bit about rebooting his studio and coverup tattoos.
