Comedy Under Review - The Condom Joke

Matt and Stu do a play-by-play of Stuart's old material and work out exactly why he's not very good at stand-up comedy.

Despite the faults of the first one, I think I actually preferred it. The big laugh you get in that routine is the mate who puts on a condom before he goes to a party. In the second performance you take a while to get there, and create more of a build up. I think it works better the sooner you get to it, and the material surrounding the awkwardness of already wearing a condom could be developed to be a longer and fully-fledged routine. Good luck!

shooting an old man, is that better or worse than shooting somone younger,

The point is a 10% increase per year, or so. nice one

Very good! Could an audience member, who went to both gigs, join you on the couch? Maybe a sycophant. Who gets angry when your mate dares question your delivery.

Best lunch break I've had all week. I think you need a third comparison at the end where you really tell the joke in the best way possible... you know... 80%.
