Dusty Slay's advice on hosting a comedy show.

Dusty Slay returning to the Rock108 Morning Show.

How do you keep your positivity up as you crisscross the

country?

I like my life.

Did he identify what type of poop it was supposed to be?

Well, I think we were talking human poop.

He

only said poop the size of a fun size Snickers bar.

That's what he said.

I told him for a million dollars how we did a king size dookie.

You know what I mean?

Now I wouldn't because I feel I feel good.

I like my life.

The Rock 108 Morning Show.

Iowa City coming up tomorrow and I'm talking about Dusty Slay returning to the Rock What A Way Morning show.

You know, as we sometimes have comedians will return to the show every once in a while.

And I figure, Dusty, I've got to ask a question of you.

I need some advice.

Can you give that to me?

Okay.

I'm hosting a comedy show.

The good news for you is it's not yours.

Okay.

All right.

This is my first time hosting.

I need some advice from you, Dusty.

What do I need to do as a host for a comedy show so then I don't tick off the comedians?

Are you in a comedy club?

Going to be in a club-like atmosphere.

Yeah.

Keep the energy positive.

Welcome the audience in.

Try a couple of local jokes.

Make some local references.

Don't expect a lot of big laughs.

And I only say that because it's hard to be a host.

Hosting's the hardest to me in comedy.

You know, you just go out, you make the audience feel welcome.

I always tell people when they host my shows, I say, your job as the host is to turn this group of people into an audience for the rest of the comics.

You

know, when you go out, they might be a little rowdy and then you slowly whittle it, whittle it, you know, you get them to where you get them corralled and then they're all like, all right, you know what, we're at a comedy show.

And then you pepper them with a couple of local jokes, you get out of there, you feel like a million bucks.

Without eating duke.

Right.
