Comedy Gym

Be funny on purpose.

Funny is a muscle with a memory. Twenty minutes a day beats a weekend workshop every single time — and every lab in this room is a different machine to train on.

Streaks are dumb. Streaks also work.

What it does

  • Simulated rooms answer you in character: drunk table, dead Tuesday, corporate gig, hostile front row.
  • You get coached after each exchange, not after the show.
  • Every exchange is scored on listening, not on how clever your comeback was.
  • Callback tracking across the whole simulated set.

What it measures

  • Did you actually listen to the answer
  • Specificity of the assumption you made
  • Heighten quality vs. cheap insult
  • Recovery speed after a miss

The curriculum

  1. 01

    Listen

    Take the real answer, not the one you wanted.

  2. 02

    Notice

    One concrete detail beats ten adjectives.

  3. 03

    Assume

    Make a confident, funny leap about who they are.

  4. 04

    Heighten

    Commit harder rather than adding a new idea.

  5. 05

    Callback

    Bring them back twenty minutes later.

  6. 06

    Repair

    How to lose an exchange and still keep the room.

Live simulated rooms arrive in Phase 4. Until then, run 'Crowd-work it' in the LOL Engine.
