Summary
Fresh off a weekend hosting at the Dallas Comedy Club, Mike breaks down the hidden skills required to become a great comedy club host. Surprisingly, being funny is only part of the job. We talk about reading crowds, managing energy, supporting the headliner, and why professionalism matters more than comics think. If you’ve ever wondered why some hilarious comics never get hosting work while others become club favorites, this episode explains why.
