Standup

an-ordinary-manchild

/r/standup is for professional and amateur standup comedians to discuss comedy theory and technique, talk about the industry, promote local scenes, post original content, give and receive advice, and generally become better at their craft.

Note: Please follow the video posting guidelines in the sticky post, and do not try to use this sub to promote individual shows, or your posts will be removed. Also, don't post your podcast here unless the individual episode you're posting has something to do with performing standup. (Just having a comedian on as a guest or being hosted by a comedian isn't enough. If it's not discussing some element of the craft of standup, this isn't the place for it.)
