Jerry, I have to thank the fella that wrote ‘no one writes like this’... As this video is gold and I’m guessing that we may not have got this video. You’re a legend, keep up the good work. ❤️
@@JerryCorley get out of here. I am genuinely starstruck that you have replied to me. Thank you sir. When things were normal I used to listen to your videos in the car on the way home and to work. I’m from a little place called Cornwall in the South West of England (the foot if you will) and I tell every comedian to make sure the check this channel out. 😀
Alright let me try one. Cardi B has also talked about the whole ”stripping to pay for her tuition” thing. I dont know if you guys know this but before she became a succesful rapper, she was known as Cardi A+
Jerry, I've been thinking of trying stand up comedy, but couldn't find a reliable source of information until I crossed upon your channel. Thank you for the work that you do! After months of flipping back and forth, casually watching basic how to videos, your content has enabled me to at least begin my journey. Thank you x100.
I find my way back to your page. Chris rock's new special gave me a kick in the ass, i'm 22 years old so i know i have a spot in the comedy game. I find myself truly lucky and am very thankful for this amazing information you provide and i can see you genuinely enjoy helping others. Thank you Jerry!
@JerryCorley Its great that u used an established example of this so we can see it in action in real time. It helped me put the pieces together for how to use this technique. Thanks.
I’ve been following you for about a month and a half and I’ve learn A LOT about comedy. I did a half hour set for an event in Oct and the people loved me. They asked me to come back in Nov. I didn’t think I could create a new set half hour set. I did most of the jokes I had the first time. But after watching your videos and applying those techniques, I was able to create a fresh half hour set with 90% new material! The other 10% were still new because I redid them and took a new approach to them. These videos are awesome and have helped out a lot! Thanks Jerry.
My aha! moment has finally come THANK YOUUUUUUU I now realise that to make a joke you only need 2 simple distinct things, combine it and voila! You got yourself a joke! Well at least that covers the 50% of the essentials.. And I like the idea of writing everything down about those 2 distinct things izgewd 👍
Nice, Henners! You realize you have two jokes here right? Always ask yourself what the audience’s possible response might be. After you say “full-ride,” you’re going to get a laugh. (You could even drop “scholarship”). Then add “to Trump University” after the pause. Then you could add an act-out of Trump getting a lap dance...(TRUMP VOICE): Okay, I only want the ladies who have D’s or Double D’s.” Some version thereof.
Interestingly enough, some people find this technique difficult, but with practice it becomes easier. There are 13 major comedy structures in comedy writing. This is just one of them.
Woman are so unfair in relationships.. My girlfriend was watching Gordon Ramsay and asked me if i fancy a quick snack. “watching things about food makes her hungry.” She said. I thought a sandwich would be nice.... I said “but after that can I watch porn,? because watching things like that makes me horny”.... I thought a blow-job would be nice.... She didn’t even make me a sandwich.
Just used this trick to tighten up a bit I knew had potential but needed to get sharpened and more to the point. Thanks Jerry, I hope to do some stage sometime with you in the future.
Hey Jerry, love your videos. I don't have a twitter so I'll try to ask this here... could you please do a video talking about Bill Hicks? I'd love to see your comments about him. Thanks from Brazil.
Thanks Onicia. What comedians do you relate to? Or your favorites? They will usually guide you to your voice early on. Then watch them, transcribe 3-5 minutes of their set. Study the mechanics, break it down, play with it, try to find a better punchline, (just for practice of course).
I love this. I try and write in so many ways which can be stressful. Like on stage and off. Writing the whole joke out or a sentence to remember it. I can never decide which way to do it as chappelle and rock seem to work it out onstage so its conversational.
Funny. Proof that some of the best jokes are the simple jokes. But is it plausible? Saving money to buy a pen? Check the couch cushions. You’ll find 3 of them and enough change to buy 3 more. 😉
You're a Brilliant Comedy Teacher, Mr. Corley Sir! I hope you keep making these videos for another 100 years! Keep going! It's Great Stuff! God Bless!!!
You sir just blew my mind 🤩 This idea gave me the structure I needed hopefully Cleaning lady vs boss at home idea I have a personal story I’d like to try in this format Thanks for the brilliant content 🙏
"Lego has replaced Ferrari as the world's most popular brand? Yeah right, try fucking a super model after showing her your legos". This dude spits gold I love it.
Here are my three: 1. Even if she got a degree, student loans will keep her on the pole for years. 2. There will be at least one subject she will ace without studying because she knows the professor from work. If it's the dean, she will dance her way through college. If it's one of the trustees, there's a scholarship. 3. Her dance class partners are in to learn some new moves.
i did what you said but i used music and construction I like listening to black metal. Its not always the right thing, I find it so hard to sleep to, but I find black metal specifically is great music to listen to if you’re feeling anxiety. For those of you who don’t know what black metal sounds like it’s basically just the sound of a noisy construction site, that’s all it is. Probably sounds like noise to you but its beautiful to me. Sometimes you actually get metal heads moshing outside construction sites. Just a whole bunch of depressed teenagers, with obscenely long hair, dressed all in black head banging, ramming into each other and throwing around a pigs head to the sound of a jack hammer and an out of sync reversing tractor. I mean honestly I when they said we built this city on rock and roll I’m not sure that’s what they meant.
Loved the video, do you have videos of other home writing techniques? For example how would I write a joke based on something I laughed at in my life/ a funny story that happened?
If you're black just throw in some F bombs and N words. If you're White just talk about how you're depressed about how chicks don't dig you. It's pretty straightforward.
Chris also did that funny, funnier, and funniest method as well. More advanced rule of 3's. "Funniest" being the Smart Lap Dance Joke. Then he acts out that funniest joke at the top of the rule of 3 hierarchy as a rule of 3 all its own. Awesome!
Jerry ill be honest here... when i saw that video about listing technique i was quite skeptical as well... i mean its like you mentioned that not every joke out of 10 is gonna be a killer and since you were not performing but just reciting jokes in that video i did'nt found them funny.... but after watching this vid my mind is just blown. i mean from now on you are my go to guy when it comes to learn writing jokes (although my validation doesnt really matter😂😂 ) i have one more small request from you though... can you suggest other great comedians like Cris Rock whom i can analyse while using listing techniques... cheers😅
When the International Space Station found out Jerry Corley was their comedian, half of them suited up and tried to hitchhike home. Look forward to your improved re-write.....if there is one.....hopefully not two because that would mean my joke had LOTS of room for improvement and my ego tells me there should be none to little.
thank you for this, jerry. it's corona time and all mics are closed. it's lovely to see this. been doing comedy in a vacuum and it's nice to get a perspective like this. for me, I think the mascot oughtta be a pole. You also gave me a little match girl joke, so thank you. (still not sure how the two disparate ideas verge and how, but I'll explore and I appreciate the exerCise)! ps... do you talk about organizing material somewhere? I'd like a tip on that if you have one. (thank you)
I view this as a way to force yourself to find metaphors, similes and analogies; pseudo-connections that you wouldn't automatically think of. This is virtually identical to something that occurred to me a while back, but not with the rigor of a list. In other words, how can I link this (perhaps mildly absurd) idea to something else for an even more absurd finish. Quite a few times this just spontaneously happened and bingo, a great joke.
Hey Jerry! I love your videos as they really break down comedy and WHY we find certain things funny. It's the WHY that is really hard to pin point in this profession! I'm an aspiring comic, still learning the ropes and I have a question for you: How/Why can some comics 'get away' with saying something about another race or group of people and NOT come off as racist or offensive. I'd like to know how that works. For example, Russel Peters bangs on racial differences but doesn't come off as racist or offensive at all while some other comics get a negative response and actually offend the audience. I'm so curious as to how this works, please I'd love for you to break it down. Thanks!
because he shows the audience he is a good guy, and he's being authentic not malicious. Plus he's a Canadian, they can say anything eh. Is he black as well? didn't notice.
Phyllis Diller kept a library file card system with individual jokes written on note cards that were cross referenced to type, style, clean or dirty, subject, etc.
Great video just had to like and get notifications. Right now i love comedy and want to do it but I'm worried about how long it will take before I can consider making a living from it as my parents aren't going to be very patient.
When I was in college I was failing my economics and finance class, I went to my TA and asked her if she would be willing to tutor me. She said if you want my help meet me at this address tonight, when I looked up the address it turned out to be a strip club, so it appears that my TA was an expert in TNA. I arrived at the strip club later that night and I found my TA. she said if you want me to tutor you, you have to buy a lap dance. I figured what the hell I need to pass this course anyways. What happened next changed my life, ladies and gentleman by the end of the night I became a master at economics and finance. After seeing her entire portfolio I had stimulated the economy by $100, and given the insensitives she was offering for additional investment spending, I was ready to create generational wealth with her.
I often stun my colleague comedians in The Netherlands speaking about your teachings on the listing technique. Too many claim it's all intuition or even art.
Thanks a lot Jerry! How much time do you spend on the listing? Do you think 30 mins per list is appropriate (60 for both)? Thanks and best regards from Berlin
+Jerry Corley, .... I don't do twitter. ... Here's a question regarding acting out. Watching, for example, Brian Regan, it seems that _for me_ he frequently draws out an action for too long. I find myself thinking: "OK I get it, got it. That's enough (over acting). Hit me with the next one, already." ... Is the idea to listen to the audience, that: as long as it is drawing out laughs just keep going?
I’ve noticed that my jokes I write tend to be more storie form. That takes a bit before gaining ground being funny. I’m trying to write shorty n I guess one liner more kind of stuff. Shorter ! Is this even important or can I just leave my stories the length they are. I’ll have a joke/storie an it’s like 6 or 8 paragraphs longish. Idk
I will! Because past month what I thought I was gonna use to kill at my next open mic. Has changed an I’m noticed stuff more darker n personal. It just seems to take gaining traction before it’s funny. An then I see guys popping one liners for an hour everyone’s fucking dying. An my fucking story culminated in less laughs I guess. But I want quality too. I’m nuts
@@robessentially9682 Thats the difference between one liner and stories. One liners are very 'instant coffee', they sip, they laugh. Whereas stories require investment from the audience and need time to perculate. From what I can see, its mostly the investment from the audience that matters.

I appreciate your videos helping others learn comedy. The listing technique is simply brainstorming. All writers use a similar technique.
Thank you so much for doing this and I realized that a lot of are using this technique during their comedy Acts.
The President just proposed a settlement in the Stormy Daniel lawsuit, giving all strippers a full ride scholarship to Trump University.
Nice, Henners! You realize you have two jokes here right? Always ask yourself what the audience’s possible response might be. After you say “full-ride,” you’re going to get a laugh.

Question - how to write a joke like Chris rock
Answer - hire writers
If you write yourself you save money and preserve your anonymity.
I often stun my colleague comedians in The Netherlands speaking about your teachings on the listing technique. Too many claim it's all intuition or even art.
Ik niet hoor, Michel. 😉 Love this guy.
I had a feeling he would say art. Dude, actions bro! WTF am I right? Nike up bro
Thank uuu
Thanks a lot !!!
Thank you💯💯

Hi, great video however how do I come up with set ups? I know you can use the news sites but that's more for monologue Jokes. Thanks.
Hire on as a plumber's apprentice. No shortage of set ups there! Trust me.
Thanks a lot Jerry! How much time do you spend on the listing? Do you think 30 mins per list is appropriate (60 for both)? Thanks and best regards from Berlin

It just seems to take gaining traction before it’s funny. An then I see guys popping one liners for an hour everyone’s fucking dying. An my fucking story culminated in less laughs I guess.

@@robessentially9682
Thats the difference between one liner and stories.
One liners are very 'instant coffee', they sip, they laugh. Whereas stories require investment from the audience and need time to perculate.
From what I can see, its mostly the investment from the audience that matters. Maybe sprinkle some one liners into your stories.
