This week I chat with comedian Mike Van Acker and we take a trip down memory lane talking about the origins of stand up comedy in Brisbane and touring road trips. We also explore how Mike enriched his comedy career by running multiple trivia nights that keep people entertained and connected.
• from open mic to headlining, the early days of stand up in Brisbane
• lessons from the golden era of Australian stand-up
• being a good MC and the art of stagecraft
• bombing, crutches, and wanting to be better
• travelling comics and customs shake downs
• building trivia nights and community mental health
• writing fair, interesting questions that people care about
• the success formula to creating a good time for trivia goers
• raising boys, mobile phones, and scrolling entertainment
• fitness, sobriety, and reinvention
