Day 16: Another late blog today…but with a much better reason. Tonight, I got a last minute call to do stand-up. I guess some other comic had to cancel…I dunno the details, but it ends with me doing a set at the Crows Nest in Santa Cruz. I love this venue. When I first started, […]
Day 7: As a comedian, I run into some really funny people. Every so often I meet a comedian that I enjoy so much that I want the world to know. So during this blog-filled October (Blogtober), I’ll be highlighting a wonderful comic each Friday in a feature called TGIF: (This Guy/Gal Is Funny). These […]

Tim Babb’s March Blog Madness: Day 6 Sometimes when you’re doing comedy, and everything is going right it feels like pure magic! The other night was not one of those times. It was one of those nights where the crowd was really thin, no one was really getting laughs, and the show seemed to be […]
It occurs to me that listeners of this podcast know I’m a stand-up only because I occasionally tell them it is so. So here’s a little proof…
30 Days and 30 Blogs: Day 19 Why do I do this? Why am I comedian? I don’t ask this because I don’t think I’m funny, I ask this because the job of stand-up comedian involves a lot of rejection…and I apparently can’t deal well with rejection. It’s almost the end of the preliminary round […]
So I was at a comedy show recently, and a few comics came in and bumped a bunch of us back. It was only by about 20 minutes or so and I still got on and got out of there at a reasonable hour…so it wasn’t the end of the world. But I was kind […]
Ok…so a comedian I’ve never met from Texas just e-mailed me…er…excuse me…SPAM’ed me about getting free tickets to his show. As we discussed on TANcast 34, I hate this. When I send out e-mails, I send them to people I actually think would enjoy the show. I don’t just blindly e-mail everyone on my list […]
