Fri-2nd december- Friday comedy-stage presence and how to make those kids laugh

Hey it's Friday and you know what that means- the Friday comedy blog by yours truly-Ryan. Now to be funny on stage there are a number Of things your can do, stupid stunts, jokes, and even engaging the audience in activities. Public speaking. Of all time said to be one of the hardest things to do, not for me. You know why? Because I believe I have gotten very great at it. How do I get to be great at it? This is what I do. Before I go on, I think ahead, thinking ahead is one of the most critical steps to public speaking. If you don't know what your saying you're screwed the minute you step on stage. You may reference a cheat sheet, but it's more engaging for the audience to see and think "wow he is really comfortable up there". If you show a calm presence of stage they will listen to you but possibly not engage if you're boring. That's why I like to say, if the audience didn't even chuckle, I did something not great. But id the audience does laugh or chuckle i l know they listened Because they laughed. Another thing to public speaking is including the audience in what you're doing, connect with the audience so they're thinking a d paying attention to you and not the person next to them. Now public speaking is harder to do with different aged people, particulary kids are easiest.", then teens to adults. Maybe teens are actually harder because I you throw In a few swears and really get into something they will laugh. Any ways back to comedy. I do a lot of my comedy on stage, public speaking usually as a host when I can get to be the host, and damn! I am a great host or mc. I always have gotten a laugh or two. Never have I not gotten one, and from all the catagories of audiences I mentioned earlier. So basically here if you master public speaking, you can be a better comedian than me! Because I was a pretty lousy president - Bill Clinton from The Simpsons. Well that's it for this comedy blog with your Friday comedian- Ryan, comment you later!
