The math of being Rodney Dangerfield on Johnny Carson
Rodney Dangerfield: This Joker Is Wild:
“Dangerfield says each Carson gig requires him to come up with 35 to 40 new jokes, and that means trying out 2,000--to find the ones that are funny.”
Want to be as funny as Rodney? Just write 2,000 jokes and do them a lot. At that point, you’ll have 5-10 minutes of good material. Then do that over and over and over and over…
