In this episode of The Open Mic Comedy Podcast, host Marc sits down with comedian Seraj Alihan for a candid and hilarious deep dive into the world of stand-up. From his improv beginnings to navigating the highs and lows of open mic nights, Seraj opens up about the raw realities of comedy: the thrill of a killer set, the sting of a flop, and the relentless grind behind the scenes.
Seraj and Marc explore the evolution of joke writing, from crafting punchlines that land with precision to reworking his very first joke into a stage-worthy gem. They chat about the dynamics of crowd work, the delicate balance between preparation and spontaneity, and the art of delivering laughs that stick.
Whether it’s tackling the dreaded “bringer” gigs, mastering the transition from short sets to extended routines, or the unique psychology of connecting with an audience, Seraj shares invaluable insights peppered with plenty of laughs. Why walk-on music might be the ultimate secret weapon, and how different comedians could use it. And of course, regulars will know all about the Comedians Challenge.
Packed with humour, honesty, and behind-the-scenes wisdom, this episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the journey of a comedian.
