111. Ray O'Leary Lets Me Pick His Brain About Comedy

Hell of an episode for you today as Ray O'Leary is back and he's let me pick his brain for about an hour about stand up comedy. The bulk of what we cover is how to develop yourself from just telling a bunch of jokes to getting to the place where you are offering something different and giving the audience your version of the world. How to get some perspective, I think he called it. Great listen for up and coming comics, hope you like it!Get yourself to Ray's latest show "Laughter?
