Former stand-up comedian Kliph Nesteroff gives viewers a look at what it takes to be a comic with this series. He talks to rookie and veteran comics to find out about their thoughts on various aspects of the industry, from breaking into comedy to bombing in front of an audience and performing niche comedy, including LGBTQ and Christian humor. Nesteroff's goal with the docuseries is to provide a behind-the-scenes look at what it's like to be on the stage instead of in the audience. Among the funny people who provide their insights are Dave Attell, Mike Birbiglia, Cameron Esposito and Pete Holmes.
