Hello, Friends! Welcome to episode 110 of the “Messed-Up to Set-Ups” podcast! Today I’m thrilled to have Paul Snyder back for Part 2 of our conversation. In this episode, we dig deeper into the art of joke writing and workshopping, focusing on a particular joke Paul has been crafting for over a year, part of which just hasn’t been working. Can we get over the hump? Join us as we brainstorm punchlines, discuss the Pavlovian response to “Hey, Babe!” and share laughs over joke writing exercises. Whether you’re new to all this, a long-time comedy enthusiast, a working comedian, or just love a good laugh, this episode is packed with insights and humor. Tune in!
