S.5. Ep. 16 | This Is How You Know When You're Becoming A PRO.

About this episode

What do you do when you don't have time to think? Comedian Jeff Foxworthy got his big break on The Johnny Carson show; producers told him that he had EXACTLY 6 minutes to perform his set. Not 5 minutes and 50 seconds. Not 6 minutes and five seconds-he had EXACTLY 6 minutes. 

Foxworthy practiced his set until he had it precisely at 6 minutes, but there was one thing he didn't factor in, the audience's laughter and applause, which derailed his timing. 

With cameras rolling, Foxworthy had to make an in-the-moment decision on which jokes to keep and which to throw out. 

Hat Tip to Molly Fletcher's episode with Foxworthy.
