Now that you are ready to go for that paid spot at a comedy club, you may be wondering how it all goes down. Every club is a little different, but we discuss the most common process for getting bumped up from the open mic treadmill to a paid emcee week at the comedy club.

Specifically, we talk about:

• crushing the guests sets
• consistent performances
• bringing fresh material
• standing out from the crowd
• the benefit of hanging out at the club
• and ... counting that cash!

We answer listener questions about "workshopping a set" and "jokes that you thought would kill, but it didn't even get a laugh" as well as how Rik's feelings on "guest sets" changed over the years.
