Once Again, Return of the Mack

A Chat with Comedian Mack Dryden, Pt. 2 (Messed-Up to Set-Ups #106)

Hello, Friends! It’s Episode 106 of The Messed-Up To Set-Ups podcast. In this one, I’m thrilled to bring you Part 2 of my conversation with the legendary comedian Mack Dryden. Here we discuss more of Mack’s incredible journey from being an award-winning journalist to his experiences performing across the globe. Best of all, we workshop some jokes together! We pull back the curtain and let you see two comedians brainstorm, share ideas, and edit jokes. And…this episode’s packed with laughter, especially as we try to come up with content for Mack’s upcoming gig at a living funeral. Tune in!

Fact: The two biggest fears for any comedian are staring at a blank page without a punchline, and standing under a hot spotlight and completely forgetting the next joke. So, I built two completely online, self-paced courses to solve both of these problems permanently. Join the growing community of working comedians and first-timers who’ve already used these labs to completely bulletproof their sets:

  • The Joke Writer’s Lab: Stop guessing at what makes people laugh. In this self-paced, online course, you’ll get the tools to find your unique comedic persona and learn the exact mechanics of writing a bulletproof joke. Get it HERE.

  • The Comedian’s Memory Lab: Never blank on stage again!!! Learn my insider method to build and flawlessly memorize your entire set, whether you are doing 3 minutes at an open mic or headlining for an hour. Get it HERE.
