Summary

Geoffrey Asmus started performing stand-up in 2013 where soon after he was selected as a ‘New Face’ performer at Just For Laughs Montreal. In 2021, he released his “Prodigal Little Bitch” audio special which went all the way to #1 on iTunes. He can also be seen at the world famous Comedy Cellar and has opened for the likes of Daniel Sloss and Ari Shaffir.


In this episode we discuss framing pre-written material for crowd-work, touring life as an introvert and Geoffrey’s unbelievable craftsmanship in tagging jokes.
