Ep. 134 - Riyadh Comedy Festival Rejects by Eunji Kim & Peter Kim
Taylor discusses starting as a comedy nomad, the idea that comedy has to balance itself, taking responsibility for the audience (even if the audience is bad and should feel bad), and learning to read the room. She and Dan also discuss weird audiences, ensuring you're in charge of the room, and building likability and trust so the audience will follow you.Taylor SoderborgTaylor Soderborg is a doctor turned comic. With both an MD and a PhD, she is proof you can go to too much school. Blending education and humor, she uses her science and medical experiences to inspire her comedy. Taylor is passionate about science communication and is the Executive Director of Science Riot, a non-profit science outreach program that turns scientists into engaging speakers and comedians through immersive training in comedy writing and performance.@doctortaycomedyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-art-of-bombing-a-comedy-podcast--5788059/support.Art of Bombing:"Nobody Had a Podcast Called The Art of Bombing" Theme by John Hult https://johnhult.bandcamp.com/album/half-a-life-to-recoverWebsite: https://www.artofbombingpod.com/ Links: https://linktr.ee/artofbombingpodBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-art-of-bombing-a-guide-to-stand-up-comedy--5788059/support.Hosts:Dan Bublitz Jr: http://www.danbublitz.com/ Larry Smith: https://larrysmithcomedy.com/
