007 - Tech Woes, Square-Go, and Promoting Comedians with Imran Hafeez

In this episode of the Open Mic Comedy Podcast, Marc and the witty Imran Hafeez join forces for a laughter-filled conversation. They dive into Imran's recent encounter with a persistent heckler, sharing insights on handling unexpected disruptions with humour and grace. Imran takes us on a journey through his initiation into stand-up, recounting the nerves of his first gig and the bold decision to launch his own comedy night.

The banter between them explores the crucial role of an MC in a comedy show, highlighting the magic of engaging the audience and creating a welcoming atmosphere. The duo wraps up with a discussion on alternative comedy nights, exploring improvisational formats and the delightful world of clown comedy. Imran shares his evolving favourite joke, emphasising the importance of relatability and vulnerability in comedy.

Key takeaways? Hecklers, be warned – humour and grace are a comedian's secret weapons. Starting a comedy career involves navigating comedy courses and nerve-wracking open mic nights. Hosting your own comedy night? It's about creating an engaging experience for everyone involved. Being an MC? It's an art, demanding charm, showmanship, and a knack for turning an audience into a family.

 

And let's not forget Square Go Comedy night – where laughs are shared, and camaraderie thrives. Imran Hafeez spills the details, promising more laughs in the upcoming Open Mic Comedy nights. So, tune in, laugh along, and spread the joy – because this podcast is on the rise, one punchline at a time!
