Hosting at Ian Atlas’ Comedy Brawl at Crown & Tiger wasn’t so bad after all

I just got back from a great night hosting Comedy Brawl at Crown & Tiger in Toronto. Ian Atlas runs a terrific room, and I was really happy to be apart of the show. The Comedy Brawl is basically a competition where the audience votes for their favourite comedian. The top comedian is awarded $50 for the night and the top four comedians move on to the following round. Tonight’s show was round one, so there were a lot of faces performing I didn’t recognize, but some of the comedians definitely had potential.

Tonight’s show was my second time hosting and the first time since my disastrous hosting debut a while back (when I overwhelmed myself by both producing and hosting a show for the first time). Tonight I was much more composed and prepared for the show, and I think it showed.

I’m not going to say that I love hosting or anything, but I’m definitely much more comfortable with it now.
