## Resource

Brian Scott McFadden sits down with comedian Chuck Nice for a hilarious deep dive into the chaos of stand-up comedy. From bombing at corporate gigs to crushing impossible rooms, they break down why most jokes fail, how comics actually build material, and what separates “friend funny” from real stage funny. Plus, a behind-the-scenes look at a wild corporate roast—and an AI that tries (and fails) to write comedy.
