About this listen
After receiving brutally honest feedback from a high school friend about my last episode being "boring and no laughs," I've rekindled my creative fire and am preparing for my first stage performance in weeks. This episode walks through my process of mining previous conversations for comedic material, sharing the awkward, honest moments of parenthood that make perfect stand-up fodder.
• Responding to criticism with renewed commitment to quality content
• My 11-year-old asking if I masturbate while watching golf, demonstrating today's kids' startling directness
• The generational divide between shame-filled adolescence and modern kids' openness
• Workshopping potential bits about Z Cavaricci pants, existential capitalism, and prison sexuality
• Reflections on boys' sensitivity and how they change during puberty
• The contrast between my admission of fear as a child versus my son's comfort with vulnerability
Next week I'll be performing on stage and recording my reactions immediately after – stay tuned for that adventure.
