About this listen

A deep dive into Greg Warren’s comedy process—discipline, clean sets, crowd work, and the stories behind The Salesman, The Champ, and Farming.

______________________

Comedian Greg Warren breaks down the craft of stand-up comedy, from his iconic “Flute Man” bit to his obsession with Jif peanut butter. He shares how discipline from wrestling shaped his writing process, why frustration and curiosity fuel his best material, and how clean comedy sharpened his voice. The conversation explores joke-writing, bombing, rewriting old premises, crowd work, corporate gigs, and the balance between trauma, frustration, and humor. Greg reflects on his specials The Salesman, The Champ, and Farming, and digs into creativity, discipline, silence on stage, and the future of stand-up.
