Are You Trying to Be Really Jokey?

improv is just a response to anxiety, right? So like you, you're like pretty tense and you're trying to be jokey to alleviate some of that. I think starting with something like ultra speaking is great because when I do improv now, I don't think about jokes. Uh, I think what I'm fixated on when I get into that scene is like the base reality, what is true, what is an interesting real life thing to explore. And I trust that the rest of it will come out and be funny eventually.
