Jokin' Off: A Comedy Battle

Check out my shows

comedian/writer/comedian

Jokin' Off is a rapid fire, single elimination one liner tournament hosted by Atlanta Comedian Greg Behrens at the Laughing Skull Lounge the first Saturday of each month at 5PM. 8 of the best comedians around will test their wit and rely solely on their joke writing as they battle it out for big laughs, bragging rights, and the title of this month's Jokin' Off Champion. Each show also features some of the best comics in the country dropping in to close out the festivities.

Comedy Island is a comedy competition based around the reality TV show Survivor. The show begins with six comedians who will go through five unique rounds to test their range of writing. The rounds will consist of ‘pun-liners’, impressions, roasts, crowd work, and stand up. After each round, the crowd votes for a winner for that round. The chosen comedian is granted immunity, and the remaining comedians must vote someone off of the show. This process will be repeated for the following rounds until there are two comedians left. The final two comedians each perform a five minute set, from which the crowd chooses a winner.
