In this episode, David and Steve invite comedian John Armstrong to discuss relationships, an overdone premise for stand-up comedians. What makes some relationship jokes work while others don't, and why is the most important relationship in stand-up between the comedian and the audience? Then we break down relationship jokes by Chris Rock and Ted Alexandro exploring what’s funny, what’s not, why, and how to create a fresh and funny angle that proves you can laugh at that.
