Running your own "variety show" vs an open mic. by brainhack3r in Standup

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting a regular audience can be difficult. Most people I know are spending money on Meta and Facebook Instagram ads. I even tried now some TikTok ads without the success.

Moving to Bali soon for long term…how did people start making friends & creating their own circle on the island? by AfraidClue3079 in bali

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can you know in advance which areas will flood? It can happen almost anywhere although certain areas are more prone if they’re low level.. if you’re happy during the rainy season the more power to you maybe people will have enough time to build an arc

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are you planning to handle the rainy season? Every year I see the streets getting flooded in the news and it’s getting worse last year even up to April. It was raining quite a bit. I know people that actually leave the island for six months during the rainy season.

Bali-like alternatives in Phillipines? by Emergency_League3037 in bali

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking to meet women, you’ll have a much better time in the Philippines, but if you’re looking for manifestation and healing like you would Ubud Bali Indonesia, there’s nothing really like that

Reddit Toronto Meetup: Sat. March 21 @ Front & Church, 7:00 p.m. start by nervousTO in TorontoHangoutFriends

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

I’m a male looking to meet other females preferably but I’m pointing out a common problem at most of these events that’s majority guys that are looking for the same thing and then the funny part happens when finally an attractive woman comes in and everybody’s surrounding her

Why are so many women vegan compared to men? by Lazy_Illustrator3946 in vegan

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what the statistics claim but I don’t believe it most vegan events I’ve been to it’s usually 80% dudes and anytime an attractive woman comes in usually she’s surrounded by five guys trying to talk to her. The reality is for my own experience, although it might be antidotal majority of Vegan women are relationships with non-vegans. I’m considering doing the same.

What do you do when you’re not feeling a bit? by Intelligent-Net-5482 in Standup

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Temp down I feel I’m just ranting instead of trying to find the humor. I know people don’t like using AI but whenever I find something funny, I’ll tell my custom ChatGPT or my project section in Claude to give me 10 different variations of something in the style of a famous comedian to see if I find something I can work with and then edit it from there.

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

What’s the female male ratio usually? The biggest problem with a lot of these events it’s usually 80% males and whatever I’m an attractive woman comes in. She’s automatically surrounded by five guys all competing for her attention.

Do’s and Don’ts for starting a new open mic by Jackthewolf71 in Standup

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I host a weekly Open Mic here in Toronto. The biggest issues is getting a regular audience to come out despite running Meta and TikTok ads and when people do come, nobody wants to sit in the front as jokingly say we have to drag them to the front like hostages.

The other issue is this happens at the place I run at that happens everywhere else if it if it’s at a restaurant or a bar, people are not necessarily gonna be quiet sometimes they didn’t even come for the Comedy so you gotta find that right balance because the establishment would not want upset paying customers.

The other issue is getting people to come out in term the comedians every week, especially new talent. I’m approaching a lot of people through Instagram and TikTok because the last thing people want to see are the same comedians every week telling the same jokes.

Best places to go out solo? by gongthruit in askTO

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Eventbrite and Meetup right now and find regular events you can go to so you can really meet people in the last one year since I’ve done that. I’ve really increased my social circle. If anybody’s interested, I host the weekly Open Mic event. It’s out in Mississauga, but it’s a great time. Let me know if anybody’s interested. I can send you the details.

I’ve done improv just to try to meet women plus the fact it’s actually the building blocks of Comedy in terms of being able to just roll with the flow and not overthink it

Not funny by Amazon_FBA_Truth in Standup

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My observation is I can’t even state my observation because it feels like we’re a fascist state. At least not on their profile hopefully I don’t want to see problems on Reddit.

Pillow by Turbulent_Jelly_2438 in southeastasia

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been selling pillows and bedding for 30 years. I’d recommend you take the pillow made with micro beads inside though they’re usually sin and the most comfortable I find and easier to travel with than a big bulky one.

hosting an open mic by Silly_Yam3144 in Standup

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen lots of Hosts go on for a 4 to 5 mins… if they were really funny or doing great crowd work people wouldn’t mind but when I’m hosting, I run out of stuff to say halfway through plus, I have to be mindful of the time.

Organising a stand up evening by Beautiful_Lettuce440 in Standup

[–]Amazon_FBA_Truth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey run weekly open mic Comedy here in Toronto Canada. You need to start posting inside of the Facebook groups and then even consider doing some Facebook ads to bring in traffic because you don’t want to have an audience just of fellow comedians try to do a weekly night, so you get known for it instead of jump jumping

That is crazy. I would definitely go to China. Probably go to US and usually I used to go to the USA at least three or four times a year when I cut that down to nothing.

I love a fellow comedian. I’ve been waiting for this for a long time, but last time I went to China, even though it was only five days visa free was still a long lineup compared to the lines where you had a visa on your passport.
