I tell stories. Because I believe you can do things that joke tellers can't do, and that is, bring your audience along.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I prefer to tell stories. If it's funny, then I want to do it on stage.
So when you tell a joke, you want to make someone laugh, or if you tell a story about someone who had a heart attack, it may be because you want the listener to exercise. Stories are tools to create social cohesion and to get humans to strategize together.
Sometimes, comedy and entertainment is not all about telling jokes; sometimes you just have to be you for a few moments.
I don't have to worry about writing jokes. I just tell stories about things that have happened to me. As long as I'm alive and I'm living and I'm experiencing different things every day, the show will always change.
I can't write a joke. I could never write. I do a lot of stories and I call them stories, but they're just comedy recitals on a given subject.
I tell stories. That's what I do. I've always told stories.
People may think I'm trying something new by telling stories, but they're just jokes connected to give the illusion of stories. But really, I just continue using my imagination and creating. That's what I do.
You just tell a good story where you're funny and it makes people laugh.
I use a lot of humor, and I follow the saying that if you want to tell people the truth, you better make them laugh first; otherwise, they will shoot you.
I guess telling stories is an art. I never looked at it that way. I just started talking, and everyone started laughing. So I kept talking, and they kept laughing.
