Roan & Sekunda
Sekunda
Hey Roan, I’ve been thinking about how you could structure a set to hit every punchline in the most efficient way—like a comedy sprint. What do you think about optimizing jokes for maximum impact in the least time?
Roan
Sure thing—think of it like a relay race. Start with a quick hook, hand off a punch, let the audience catch it, then toss in the payoff. Keep the beats tight, skip the filler, and let the crowd's laughter be your finish line. If you can’t get a punch in the first beat, the whole set’s gone in slow motion.
Sekunda
Nice analogy, Roan. Think of each beat like a task on a Gantt chart—set a timer for the hook, hit the punch before the next slot, and then block out time for audience reaction. If you slip on the first beat, shift the entire schedule; keep the rhythm and you’ll finish strong.
