It's so weird that there are other "Comedy School" channels on RUclips that are mega popular, and this one is BY FAR the most helpful and doesn't have the subscribers it deserves. Keep up the great work Mr. Corley. While we aren't in the millions (like they should be), your subscribers appreciate you.
I am a new comedian and I've been on stage 3times and I just got the same advice from a group of know it alls . Thank you so much for being here.
It started with an idea to RUclips "how to be a comedian"
I'm genuinely ecstatic to come across this channel and I couldn't be more impressed with your videos and professionalism. For once I see an actual path to doing what I've wanted to do for a long time, I just didn't know where to start.
In finance, it's super corporate and anyone could make a case for being offended or feeling a certain bit was unprofessional. I know it's possible and now I feel I can actually do this.
The ultimate goal was to take the stuff I was already doing and be able to translate it too big corporate events for large mutual fund and hedge fund companies who also need a strong opening act but because the information is so professionally specific few people get my material unless they're an adviser or an analyst.
But this is where comedy is needed and I know for a fact the industry is ripe. For once in my life I think I can finally exercise the ultimate goal.
People often ask what do you want to do in life or what's your goal and it's a very difficult question to answer. I've surmised I want to use my creative capacity to 100% of its potential and connect the dots that are so blatant but hidden in plain sight . The problem though is how do I do it in such an environment? I'll follow your advice and work towards being the highest paid comedian no one's ever heard of.
Lastly, keep it up you're actually changing lives by empowering people who are still finding their way and have the courage to find the answer. After all, I now use your voice to text command to "start a new paragraph"
Didn't know that was an option. It works C?
But not. Always
Thank you
Hows that going
Love this! Thanks, guidance and help in prioritizing are such a gift!
Jerry Corley is insanely funny and even more nice. Probably the nicest and smartest comedian for newcomers
Thank you Jerry, I will forever ignore schmucks! I'm one year into doing open mics and it has changed my life. I love your videos and recently bought your book on Comedy DNA. When I level up a bit I will reach out again.
Beautifully put, brother. There are schmucks out there. and I hope they see this and learn from it.
A professional comic with a heart. You are fantastic. I really like what you’re about.
I love learning from you.
Cheers,
Dan
Thank you for the great channel you've made. :) Inspiring for those (Me) who want to give stand up a go (again).
Ive done about 7 open mics thus far. I am so happy to have found your 13 rules, also your channel. I have always loved comedy and have done pretty ok at open mics. I feel you will take me to the next level. Very inspirational man, thanks!

I've received a lot of informative information from his videos.... I'm not a closed minded Comedian...
Easy Jerry. I LOVE my VHS collection. Thanks for the vids!
Watching all of your videos, exactly the structure and advise I have been looking for! Great information, will be looking at your upcoming class schedule!
I just want to say thank you to you for helping all us fresh comics out. You have integrity and compassion and those are rare in our world. Hats off to ya friend 💛
Thanks for all the help u gave to us ! This is a precious gift for us. :)
"Perfect practice makes perfect."
One of my favorite maxims. I was told that by one of my best music teachers growing up, and it has stuck with me ever since. Great advice.
Hey man, I just found your channel today and it's been great advise. I'm just a new comic and I'm in Colombia so the whole scene is new. I'll make sure to put on the work to be a good comedian 💪🏽
Jerry , thank you for all the great advice . It is obvious that you love what you do , have accomplished and gained through your career. It is also obvious that you are a very unique person , to share your talent is most unselfish . Your confidence shines through your desire to help us with our comedy , again thank you .
I always thought of myself as an artist until I started studying stand-up.. it’s an amazing skill to make an audience laugh on Q.. wow is all I can say!!! Thanks again for your help and encouraging words Jerry, very thankful for you and your positivity on this journey together! Best, Steve
Great video and thank you for the guidance. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks for being that nice Jerr, I'm writing my very first 5+m set about myself and where I'm from with some of your tips!!!
Love from Germany!!
He actually cares . Gotta love this guy.
Love your videos. I’m planning on visiting your Burbank location once this pandemic ends. I can’t wait to learn from you and find a good community of comedians.
Great advice applicable to any discipline. Thank-you.
I just found your channel and am excited to watch all of your videos and continue to grow as a comic. Thank you for the advice!
Wow Jerry, awesome channel, videos, and advice!
Thank you for inspiring me to get back into stand-up comedy!
I hope all the comics reading this make "it"
I absolutely love your channel it's been a week since I've been studying the art of comedy. I have yet to do my first open Mic but I live out in the middle of nowhere. It's almost like Kansas nothing around except prairie dogs and cows. I've been watching a lot of different comics open mics first timers to build the confidence I lack. Thank you for your channel
I just discoverd this channel and I'm now happy.
I mean I was, but I am more now.
...ok who am I fooling we're in a pandemic nothing is goes well but this channel is! Haha
I just love listening to the great advice that you give to myself as a new comedian thank you.
Great advice on these videos Jerry. I'm 3 months/25 sets into comedy and in a hurry to improve! I've had a lot of the bad advice you talk about already and seen a lot of that schmucky lazy attitude which is destined for mediocrity and failure. Anyone smart knows it's absolutely right and beneficial to follow rules/formulas that work and be guided by the success of others. These videos are helping me a lot. So thanks and please keep them coming!
Super inspirational! I wish I could be a comic one day. Maybe one day. Thank you Sr. for keeping our dream alive ❤️
Thanks for this. I've been dealing with bullying from other comics
Love your videos man,
Im writing my first jokes and this videos really help.
Thanks so much for the effort you make to deliver your knowledge.

I am really enjoying your videos, these are very informative.
Thanks for sharing your craft and experience.
Wow! Those are powerful and inspiring words from you Jerry. Thanks a lot for this video!
GOLD.
Jerry, you da man!
Great work thumbs up
Thank you, Dr.!!!
Great stuff. Your book is great btw.
Jerry, this is absolutely correct: there are infinite possibilities. Platitudes accepted as faith are shackles made of dogma for the weak of mind. And those too comfortable in the present calcification of their act...
Thanks, that was realistic in a palatable way.
Awesome vid, thanks!
Great info. Thanks man.
Even the worst professional comic knows things that I still need to learn. Things about the craft that have gotten them to where they are, even if they’re perceived as hacks. I’ve promised myself I won’t judge other comics when I could be studying them instead. Plus, why make enemies?
You have to pick around the pig shit to find the tiny gold nuggets. I find this problem occurs in many fields, when I was just starting out bodybuilding I would ask big jacked dudes what to do and the most common response was "you just got to get in there and lift" it took awhile but finally I figured things out with the help of a few good ppl willing to help me out.
A riising tide floats all boats.
This is very true, I was lucky to get a bit of advice off of Roy Chubby Brown on Facebook, it's a screenshot I'll forever hold close to my pocket... 😄
once you become a performer, you're a target for losers, critics etc. you must learn to ignore them
Rule of the comedy club: 1-There are no rules 2-Follow the first rule.
You spoke a word
Love u
Shmucks gonna shmuck
Jerry, what is a 'schmuck?" Isn't that from the jam ad that says: "With a name like Schmuckers, it better be good?!" Have you ever gotten your schmuck in a jam? I KNOW I got jam on my schmuck!
I'm wondering how do you find a good manager for your comedy career to blossom? Can you become a great comedian without having a manager? What should you look for in a manager for your personal success in the business.
Human laughter is fine but I'm after the lizard laugh
Good stuff.
I wonder what his opinion of Kill Tony or Tony himself would be.
Great info. Zoom comedy in these times is sorely lacking in helpful inspiration.
I resent what you said about schmucks like me who just go out there and are funny. I can be funny any time of day or night unless they force me to wear this odd suit that ties up my arms and legs and take my meds.
Do you hate Don Rickles put downs ?
:)
I have a man crush on you!!!!
I'm a story teller, not a comedian, but I've learned a lot from listening to you.
Great video but you definitely got carried away talking about all of your accolades for 45 minutes lol
30 years, huh? Never heard of you, but do go on.
You help me a lot ❤
Can I get your email please 🙏🙏🙏🙌
Sure, you can drop me an email at info@standupcomedyclinic.com
@@JerryCorley I did, thanks so much
