Chicago-based T. Murph believes that these challenges have improved his versatility. He also praised each contestant’s ability to transcend audiences. Murph argues: “We perform in front of so many other audiences than the average comedian, it makes us better at what we do.”
“Some comics only have one specific audience,” Murph said, gesturing to the other contestants, “but we can perform in any room. We can hit an alternative room with a white, super progressive college crowd that only wants to hear Hillary/Trump jokes, and we can hit the black bar and grill, hole-in-the-wall and kill it there!”
