Life is too serious. Think of the world we are giving our children, with the riots and the state of the environment. Why not lighten it up? Why not throw in a little comedy into this dark world? Your workplace needs it; your school needs it; even your cocktail parties need some laughs. Oh, so you think that comedy is for an elite class of comedians out there? I am here to tell you, it’s for everyone. If you can make your friends laugh with a clever quip or a story in your living room. You have what it takes to write and perform stand-up comedy.

This book is about writing and performing stand-up comedy . . . and other things that make you swear. By implementing the processes in this book, six weeks from now you will be able do a seven-minute stand-up comedy set and make the house go bananas. It's what the world needs: YOU . . . making us bananas!

In 2014, as a fund-raiser, I taught a comedy class that did just that: people went from no experience all the way to packing in all their friends for an amazing stand-up show where they killed it!
What if you could write jokes that would intentionally make your co-workers laugh? Here are some testimonials from some who’ve learned to hit their funny bone:

“I started . . . basically knowing nothing about stand-up comedy other than [that] I loved it. This process helped me create my own original material and [gave me] the confidence to perform it.”
“I had always wanted to try stand-up but had no idea where to start. The idea of just writing some jokes and going to an open mic seemed overwhelming! Geoff did a fantastic job coaching [me] through the process of stand-up, from where to find our material all the way to rehearsing and performing. It was absolutely thrilling to perform my material on our Showcase night—an adrenaline rush I haven't experienced with any other type of performance. If you’ve ever even had an inkling that you might want to try stand up, [try it now]!”

Read this book and implement its proven exercises (in the YOUR TURN sections at the end of each chapter ), and you will have everyone in hysterics with your own original comedy set.
Start today, because the world needs you. It’s just getting far too serious out there. Dive into this book right now . . . for the sake of the world . . . Do it for the children.
