Try to enjoy in it !

Before today's introduction, let me tell you a short history of stand-up comedy.
Well, in  the United States, there were teams of comedians. During their show, they talked to each other rather than the audience. Gradually, some comedians became famous of their solo style such as Borscht Belt in the 1930s and 1940s. However, a British named Bob Hope made stand-up comedy truly popular.   (resource:Encyclopedia Britannica)

So, how to enjoy in a stand-up comedy? Sometimes , performers use their own experience such as their family or their pets. Secondly, they talk about discrimination. It doesn't mean that we acknowledge. The reason why they like to use it is: the audience like it! Because most of the audience are adults, there are sexual jokes and dirty words at times. Definitely, I won't  choose these videos for you!

Now, let's watch a piece of Louis C.K.'s show. He talks about his experience about taking of his children,and how BORING it is! Hope you enjoy in it~

From 25:53 to 28:33.

  4. I think why stand-up comedy becomes so popular is because it keeps close to audience, and audience's life.
