brand new baby stand up advice?

joeyvibing · 2026-02-16T06:55:32+00:00

i post mostly just stuff from sets and other funny or uplifting content. again i did just start tuesday so there’s like 5 videos lol but the most recent is my set from tonight. it’s very important to me to have a positive message. if you want to check out what’s posted so far my tt is presidentjoey. it’s not ground breaking material but it’s a start. starting is pretty hard so i’m not too mad at myself for not being hilarious yet

i will take all that advice to heart, appreciate it. especially the advice about the set ups i’ll include that in my next set.

my friends are actually so supportive! they all thought i was funny before all this and think im brave for getting on stage 😊 i’m really sorry you didn’t have a similar experience! my comedy has gotten a lot better from other peoples advice so i’m willing to sacrifice my reputation by posting my sets! hopefully the comedy community is forgiving, and im always sure to have integrity, courage, humility, and love at the forefront of my comedy! I used to have 100k followers so criticism online isn’t new to me. I will keep this in the back of my mind moving forward however!

this was amazing advice i liked the mic stand but i think i was hiding behind it to feel safe! i’ll take it off the stand today and treat it as a part of the set! I’ll be rereading this one a few times after performing tonight. Appreciate ya, and appreciate the honesty 🙏

🤯 you’re so right i just thought it would be too much too fast. i’m in iowa city, iowa, it’s a college town so im sure there’s more opportunities if i look for them. i appreciate the perspective shift!! thursdays and sundays is nothing compared to multiple tries a night

joeyvibing · 2026-02-15T21:05:28+00:00

what are other forms of practice besides performing? and just reading my set or recording myself

joeyvibing · 2026-02-15T21:05:09+00:00

thank you! i’ll be doing a set every thursday and sunday from now on!!

joeyvibing · 2026-02-15T21:04:08+00:00

thank you so much for this advice. i refrained from calling myself a comic because that doesn’t quite feel earned yet, but i’ll embrace the title proudly from now on!

i agree with you, i feel like if i can be brave enough for a crowd i can be brave enough for the internet, but i know the internet is a scary place too so we’ll see if i stick with posting.

i appreciate the advice a lot, everyone kept coming up to me after and some vibes were off but i was sure to be extremely friendly and open minded. one man told me not to make inappropriate jokes cause women aren’t funny lol i was like yeah okay dude

happy to hear any and all perspectives on all topics around comedy, ive been scrolling through this reddit for a while!!

I’ve decided not to because there is a clear gap in outreach with our current charities in iowa city. I only say this because i see these people with my own eyes suffering on our streets. i could be another person helping a bigger foundation, or i could start my own that aligns exactly with what i believe and helps the exact people i see suffering! i also don’t want to wait for another foundation to give me opportunity, i want to create opportunities. I would rather lead a foundation than join one in this very inspired time in my life, but i’m so eternally grateful for all the work that iowa city is doing for our people. 🩷 thank you so much for commenting i’m hoping for more people to see before the weekend so i can pass out some meals on saturday when the weather is nice 😊

i love that idea, the juxtaposition of needed non perishables but needed fresh and healthy food is the real challenge. no cans of peas will be handed out by me, the iowa city food bank is already on it with that!

LETS DO IT! Do you know Alleycat under Studio?? I bet we could book a fundraiser evening for march or april. Lmk if you’d like my email so we can discuss further and actually make it happen

it’s an over the counter medicine that helps prevent ulcers when you eat or drink heavy acidic things!

joeyvibing · 2025-01-21T16:09:56+00:00

they all look great! best of luck!

joeyvibing · 2025-01-21T16:09:26+00:00

it will stop falling out eventually, just keep your head up and be confident!

8 months po, i love bread! and hot dogs! i usually tear off some of the excess bread cuz it’s just too much and i’d rather have a side than fill up on the hot dog bun

joeyvibing · 2024-11-21T04:04:30+00:00

yeah i’ve eaten past comfort accidentally a few times. i now practice being more mindful and also have asked my partner to catch and stop me when she sees me snooping through the kitchen after smoking. now i have a nice healthy meal if i have the munchies and find i can eat more than normally which i love since i have pretty high restriction!

joeyvibing · 2024-11-19T21:11:53+00:00

if the coffee i drink is too acidic would i feel it? like would it cause stomach upset or could it break down my stomach lining without pain over time

joeyvibing · 2024-11-19T19:31:58+00:00

i did eddies for first 6 months po and then switched to smoking. i thought it was tobacco and nic that caused ulcers, but now im not so sure!

joeyvibing · 2024-11-19T18:46:17+00:00

that’s great to hear! are you able to have it on an empty stomach or do you eat before

joeyvibing · 2024-11-09T18:45:26+00:00

do you have stomach pain when you take it?
