006 - Voiceovers, Laughs, Action, and the Edinburgh Fringe with Emmy Fyles

Hey there, comedy lovers! In this episode of the Open Mic Comedy Podcast, our host Marc sits down for a hilarious chat with the one and only Emmy Fyles – comedian extraordinaire and voiceover wizard.

They dive into Emmy's wild ride through the world of comedy and voiceovers, from her killer Edinburgh show, 'Live Your Best Life,' to the ups and downs of stand-up. The conversation swings from Emmy's shining moment on stage to her, let's say, not-so-glamorous gig at a private members club. Oh, the tales of the comedy trenches!

Emmy and Marc tag team on the topic of the comedy scene needing more funny ladies, both on stage and behind the scenes. Enter Candy Store Comedy, a brunch with a side of laughs that Emmy helps organise to celebrate female comedians.

Wrapping it up, they toss out some golden nuggets for newbie comedians – like not taking bad gigs personally and the magic of being super specific when crafting jokes.

But wait, there's more! Emmy spills the beans on the science of comedy, the impact of words and accents, and the fine art of joke writing. Ever wondered how walk-on music and persona can crank up the laughs? They've got you covered. And, as a grand finale, Emmy even takes on the challenge of throwing a joke from a book into her set. Now, that's comedy gymnastics!

 

Stick around till the end for the lowdown on where to catch more of Emmy's comedic genius.

 Takeaways? Comedy's not just punchlines; it's a mix of science and art. Words, accents, and even ditching the unnecessary make a joke pop. Walk-on music and a killer persona? Comedy gold. And hey, why not spice things up with a bookish joke challenge?

 Tune in, laugh out loud, and join the comedy party! 🎙️😂
