Crowd work has a storied history as part of the stand-up scene. It’s always been a way to engage with the crowd in a fun way, where they will know that moment is unique to that set.
In recent years, more and more comics have been not only featuring crowd work clips on their social media handles, but also producing crowd work specials. Big Jay Oakerson has created what could be the ultimate crowd work specials.
Released into two parts, the specials Them and They have come out within two months of each other. The latter of which just dropped Sunday night. Within the specials, Oakerson manages to show us all how crowd work should be done, all without breaking a sweat.
These specials are an insight into just how the “comedy brain” works, and we promise that it’ll keep you laughing throughout. Watch the full specials below!
