In this episode of Put Your Funny Where Your Mouth Is, Vince Carone and Dobie Maxwell pull back the curtain on how they’re building a stand-up comedy class that’s actually worth taking—for the students and the audience.
Together, they reveal the thinking behind their new course structure, why they created it, who it’s for, and how they’re using decades of experience to guide first-timers toward writing and performing a solid five-minute set.
From class content to pricing, video packages to student red flags, this episode is a roadmap for any comic thinking about teaching—or taking—a class that sets people up for success (and not just self-delusion).
Key Points Discussed:
- Why many comedy classes miss the mark—and how to fix them
The 4-week class + graduation show structure Vince and Dobie use
How to teach confidence and craft—without crushing originality
Why not every student should pass—and how to set real expectations
- How they price, package, and protect the integrity of their course
Whether you’re an aspiring comic, a working comedian thinking of teaching, or just someone fascinated by how stand-up works behind the scenes—this episode gives you the real deal on building comedy from the ground up.
