  6. 6
    Eric Carter56:56Bucket Pull

    He discussed Southern stereotypes and 'first world problems'. Originally from Mississippi and living in Orange County, he has been doing comedy for about two years. The panel loved his likability but suggested he acknowledge his clean-cut appearance versus his Southern accent.

  7. 7
    Sean Khan1:05:10Bucket Pull

    He told a story about a confrontation with a man who wouldn't pick up dog feces, the panel critiqued his low volume and perceived arrogance. He was somewhat defensive during the interview, leading to a long discussion on stage presence.

  9. 9
    Sara Mostajabi1:21:58Regular

    She felt targeted by a previous joke about how women get passed at the club. She has been doing comedy for four months and had a visible emotional breakdown on stage, the panel tried to help her navigate the 'boys club' atmosphere of comedy.

  10. 10
    Kim Congdon1:28:03Regular

    She joked about the jealousy she feels toward a woman who started a professional cuddling business. They suggested she refine the 'math' of the joke to make the punchlines hit harder. The panel noted she is very likable and presentable.
