	Standup Comedy Tips from Judy Carter
		Rather than personal revelatory comedy, they love political satire where the comic doesn’t hit the nail on the head, but jokes are clever and ironic.
		American standup is self defacing, authentic, and shame based.
		People say that comedy is hard, but comedy is hardest when there is sunlight streaming into the room.

	Articles About Stand-Up Comedy by Greg Dean - standup teacher
		The purpose of teaching comedy techniques is to remove the instructor's opinions about what is funny or acceptable from the process, and to replace them with consistent fundamental techniques of writing and performing.
		Comedy instructors practice creative censorship when they state their own opinions about what they find offensive or inoffensive, what they think is funny or unfunny, or what the student can or cannot do in their show.
		Therefore, the stand-up comedy classroom-environment needs to be a safe place where students can feel free to present and test all ideas without the teacher's instant condemnation about the nature of their content.

	perform standup comedy on 43 Things
		What’s odd, is when I think about this I really have no desire to stand up in front of a whole crowd of people, I’m not really one to attract attention to myself, but at the same time I’m curious as to if I could pull it off, if I apply myself to it.

		Derenger spends a lot of his time telling jokes on the road, last year logging 11,000 miles in his car on one 17-state tour, playing comedy clubs, bars and about any other place that would pay him to be funny.
