Comedian Bob Zany knows that embarking into the profession of standup is no laughing matter.
“I was abandoned on a doorstep in a mall,” he said. “And the workers at Hot Dog on a Stick took me in and thought I was funny.”
Then again, maybe there’s nothing serious about the life of a comedian at all.
“No really; it was either comedy or follow in my father’s footsteps as a painter,” Zany said. “I was never good with a putty knife.”
Or perhaps standup surpasses surface-level jokes into a realm of comedic complexity, requiring the perfect blend of critical thinking with a quick wit, perfect timing, and constant charisma.
“Standup comedy is such a beautiful, fantastic little thing,” said fellow comedian Costaki Economopoulos.
