The Unreliable Comedian: When Humor Goes Awry The world of comedy is built on risk and unpredictability, yet for one comedian, Tim Dowling, the stakes have never been higher.
As he tries out new jokes, he finds that his band shuns them, but telling old ones proves even riskier.
Comedians live or die by their ability to read an audience, but Dowling's tale is one of self doubt and creative stagnation. His stories, once clever and unexpected, have become stale from repetition.
