I've been getting a lot of questions about why there haven't been podcasts this year, and here is my exciting answer!

This episode of Hot Breath focuses on the evolving landscape of comedy and the challenges faced by both new and experienced comedians. Joel Byers and Yoshi dive into a thought-provoking discussion sparked by Bill Burr's critique of modern comedy, highlighting how the emphasis has shifted away from honing comedic skills to navigating social media and analytics. They reflect on the importance of being a good comedian and the pressures of performing in corporate settings, sharing personal anecdotes and lessons learned from live gigs. The conversation also touches on the necessity of networking and understanding the expectations of gatekeepers in the industry. Ultimately, this episode aims to educate aspiring comedians on how to adapt to the changing environment while maintaining authenticity in their craft.Join our email list here: https://hotbreathpodcast.com/vipJoin our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/HotBreathComedyNetwork/Join our Patreon: http://patreon.com/hotbreathpodSubscribe to our YouTube channel here: https://youtube.com/hotbreathpod?sub_confirmation=1Check out our classes and workshops here: https://hotbreathmedia.comTakeaways: Corporate comedy gigs often have poor setups but pay exceptionally well, making them worth it. Understanding the audience and context of your performance is crucial for success. Engaging with the audience through crowd work can elevate an otherwise challenging gig. Bill Burr emphasizes that modern comedy often prioritizes social media presence over honing craft. Young comedians should focus on networking and building relationships within the comedy scene. Creative fulfillment in comedy should not be sacrificed for trends or pressures from the industry.
