in the laptops and the camera. - Laptops, ah, it's depressing. I'm gonna tell you right now, somebody, somebody tried to hire me
during COVID to do a zoom gig for a corporate event. And we want you to be warm Mr. Harvey, we want you to be
motivational, but we want you to be humorous. I said, no, I can't do it. I'm just sitting in front of
this laptop trying to tell jokes with no feedback,
that's a death sentence. Well, let's go, Tumi, introduce your team. - All right, we have Robby Collins, I babysat for his mother,
she still hasn't fetched him. This is Robbie Collins. We have Alfred Adrian, he's
actually a bit of a little ship, but he jumped ship before them. Welcome, very funny, man. We have Nicholas, we
found him in the passage. - Stop right there Tumi, stop right there. Ladies and gentlemen, this
is my dude right here. (cheering, clapping) Ladies and gentlemen, I'm
the greatest intro artist in the business today. Ladies and gentlemen, out of Johannesburg, one of the greatest studio
warmup acts ever born into the history of this business. (cheering, clapping) - [Nicholas] Oh, I'm gonna cry. He has opened for one of the
original Kings of Comedy. He is the co-star of the Family Feud Show. The warm-up act, give it up for Nicholas. (cheering, clapping) - [Tumi] Like I said, I
found him in the passage. Last but not least we have
Loyiso, very funny man, closely associated with
our man Mr. Trevor Noah. (cheering, clapping) - [Loyiso] It's hard to follow Nick. - Are you closely associated
with Trevor, how so? - Um, - Oh, that was just, - I'm the South Africa
correspondent for The Daily Show. Oh really? Okay, good,
good, good, that's good. I met Trevor one time at
a fashion show in Paris. And he came up to me, he's a good brother. Funny dude, man, he doing well. He just signed a big deal,

write to entertain people. - Umm, I'm going to go with, (Buzzer) Ahh! I didn't know there was a timer. - Yeah, you didn't know it was a time? Yeah, just like in our business. Like this is the deal, man. I tried it, this is my, this
is how I made it, right? I have a very system. I'll tell you the entire system, but here's one. I learned to treat comedy as a science, you can pull up any one of my
specials and hit the clock. I produce a house laugh, which
is 85% of the room laughs every 20 to 35 seconds. - Damn. - I don't care what's happening. In 20 seconds 85% of
this room gonna laugh. No more than 35 seconds
unless I'm stopping them, giving them a breath, cause sometimes I just had let them breathe. (cheering, clapping) Sometimes, I just had a
little pull itself together, you know, put their clothes
back on, stuff like that. I wish I had time, really
sit down with y'all and share you with the real
science of what this is. Because a lot of talented
people over here, man, y'all got some real
talent, you really do, man. Alfred we got two strikes,
we gotta be careful man. Lil Ships can steal. Name something people
write to entertain people. - Plays? - They write plays. (cheering, clapping) (buzzer) That was a good answer. A'right Kurt, Lil Ships,
give me something. Name something people
write to entertain people. - Social media, tweets, WhatsApp. - Tweets, social media. (ding) (theme music) Number seven, (ding) comics. Six, (ding) blogs, articles.
