About this listen
In this episode of Put Your Funny Where Your Mouth Is, Vince Carone and Dobie Maxwell relive a gig that went completely off the rails, where every twist, turn, and mishap seemed determined to derail the night. From a venue setup that defied logic to a crowd that kept them guessing, this was the kind of gig that tests a comic’s patience, professionalism, and punchlines.
Vince and Dobie break down the night beat-by-beat, sharing what it’s like to stay funny when the odds are stacked against you, and why these chaotic shows often become the best stories in a comic’s arsenal. It’s part comedy survival guide, part road diary, and 100% proof that when things go wrong in stand-up, the laughs can get even bigger.
Key Points Discussed:
- How a seemingly normal gig unraveled from the moment they walked in
- The hidden challenges comics face that audiences never see
- Why staying adaptable is the real secret weapon on stage
- The mental game of laughing at a disaster while you’re still in it
- Why “off the rails” nights can be career gold later on
