    Ron White
    White served in the United States Navy. According to his own account, White joined the service at age 17 and served on the auxiliary rescue and salvage ship USS Conserver near the end of the Vietnam War. From a young age his dream was to become a comedian. *He lived in Mexico for a brief period and bought a pottery factory there before returning to the U.S. to pursue comedy.*

    The point he makes around 14:00 about tightening the wording of your act by eliminating unnecessary words and simplifying things is an extremely good point. I first read of this in Jay Sankey's excellent book, "Zen and the Art of Standup Comedy". That's an excellent book on standup and I highly recommend it. It's inexpensive, too.

    This is the best talk I’ve ever heard on stand-up. I did stand-up for over 16 years and never made it past a feature act. Why? Because I did EVERYTHING he said NOT to do! I was funny…I'm still funny, but I spent more time getting high and trying to get laid than I did on comedy. I felt I was entitled to be great because I was funny. I felt I didn’t have to do the work because a magic wand was going to make me a star. I never knew Ralphie… I am familiar with him, I knew he was great and this is an eye opening talk that still holds up in 2023. Nowadays there are a lot of different venues to work on comedy like Instagram, TikTok, CZcams… but the bottom line is, you have to do the work. This comic Matthew Rife was a middle of the road act until he blew up on TikToK. Now he’s one of the top draws in the country. You have to do the work. I am so happy I found this video. Thank you, Ralphie May. RIP….

      I do stand up myself. Just the open mic stuff mostly, just for fun, although I have had a few paying gigs and have been known to write for some comedians. With that being said, Ralphie scolded that comics shouldn't "hang out with other comics." I disagree! To be honest, it's the other comics I ONLY feel comfortable around. It's like the same mentality as cops only hanging with cops, if that makes sense.

    Class act. Ralphie was the real deal!
    Sad I never got to see him live.
    The fact that he did this and the way he did purely shows what an amazing human being he was.
    RIP Big Fella❤

    I can see it now, Ralphie May and Jesus and Mother Mary smoking up some ribs with a bail of Holy Mary~Jane, while they all philosophize over
    life and their personal observations , interpretations from their own their lives on earth, just... shootin the breeze~ I hope you ve taken a load off your feet dear Ralphie May and thanks for having the courage to share your funny bones with us in spite of all the not so great stuff that comes with the job. Thank you for the download Jander :) Much Appreciated. Stay Well.

    I have no interest in ever becoming a comedian, but watching this is incredibly fascinating! The world lost one helluva comedian when he went to tell jokes on the other side!!

    I watched Ralphie May kill in the 90s as a kid. Really cool to see him talk about the biz and the craft. I am a comic stuck in the lower realms of open mics and a gig here and there and I gotta say. This has been truly inspiring and educational. Ty for the upload and Rest in Peace Ralphie.

    As a comic who's recently been through "the wringer", this is the most spot-on advice. But wait, it gets worse!
