so the flipside of that, and to be a good standup comic, you know, as any of the standup kind of clubs a lot of the comedians feel like, keeping it clean is not going to be a good enough laugh for a 20 minute show or the 15-minute standup, but they have to be racy? >> no. a comedian is going to do whatever they feel is funny and not what they think that the audience wants necessarily, but what they themselves believe is funny and then try it out on stage, and hopefully the audience will agree with them in finding it funny, so it does not matter if it is dirty or or clean, but it is a reflection of their own comedian's personality, and people like brian regan or bob newhart who were considered clean comedians and some of their favorite comedians are comedians who are d dirty. i don't like to use the word dirty, because it is a negative connotati connotation, but use cuss words or language, and richard pryor for example. and so it account also go vice versa. there is no pressure in the comedy club to do anything other than make the audience laugh and be funny and you can do that if you a
