The audience make assumptions on YOU even before you say the first word. Get ahead by understanding exactly what those assumptions are.

Theo Von doesn't just ramble and win over an audience. There's always a technique at play. In this video I explain the subtleties of natural performance.

Most beginner comedians don’t have a joke problem. They have a thinking problem.

In this video I break down how comedians actually train themselves to think differently through reactions, comparisons, exaggeration, tension, wording, and natural performance.

A lot of stronger material comes from changing the way you observe and react to the world rather than just trying to force punchlines onto the page.
