Episode 225: Abbi Crutchfield (Hulu, The Late Show With Stephen Colbert)

Season 7

Thursday, March 17, 2022 • Duration 01:32:49

Episode 225: Don’t Be Precious! In this episode, Dan and Josh are joined by Abbi Crutchfield, the host of Up Early Tonight on Hulu. Abbi reminds us that stand-up comedy isn’t for perfectionists - because no live show goes 100% right - AND it’s not supposed to. So in order to become a better comic and evolve your material, set small goals. Think ahead of time about what you want to accomplish, focus on it on stage, and use those victories to ‘fill your confidence tank’. Dan and Abbi talk about how stand-up comedy is about getting rid of what doesn’t work. Tune in for Abbi’s awesome bombing story about doing a college - outside - in the dark. Plus more! Please rate and review. Abbi Crutchfield
Abbi Crutchfield is the host of Up Early Tonight on Hulu. You have seen her on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, Comedy Central, and as the host of You Can Do Better on TruTV. She makes people laugh locally as a staple of the NYC stand-up scene and nationally when on tour.
