There is a bit of a science to creating a stand-up comedy set that flows. It takes a little planning to put together a show that starts quick, builds momentum, and finishes with a closer that rocks the room. A pile of great jokes performed in a haphazard order will frustrate both you and the audience.
This episode is a must listen for comics who:

Only have a few jokes and can't seem to decide what order is best
Are more established but constantly find "dead spots" in their show
Any comedian who struggles with consistency on stage despite decent material

In this episode we talk about building a set that flows naturally. By thinking in advance about your shows you can create a logical flow that enables every joke to shine. Knowing what your jokes say about you is a big part of that. We cover a lot of ground in this episode that took years for me to fully understand.
Specifically, we talk about:

Building trust and establishing common ground
Establishing your point of view (P.O.V.)
What to do if you don't have a strong P.O.V. just yet
Looking for chances to add lines to call back later
How to bring it all full circle
What you should consider in your closing routine
