Nick Hopping has devoted his life to his stand up comedy career. When the pandemic began he had to pivot to fill the void. For more than two months, instead of performing in front of live audiences every day, he's been writing and producing a daily comedy video about something he has learned that day.

Where does he get his ideas each day? After so long is he still driven to do it? Or does he feel obligated to keep it going?

Watch Nick's videos on Instagram @nickhoppingcomedy or on his YouTube Channel.
