It walks aspiring comedians through a step-by-step process by exposing and explaining certain facets of a stand up's repertoire, teaching them how to adapt, improvise and overcome obstacles every day. From linguistics, punch lines, mouth work, joke lists to crowd control, the author shares an overload of both hilarious and eye-opening essays that teach readers how to obtain a better grasp of how ‘funny' works.

Author Deck says, "I believe if you give a man a laugh, then he laughs today. If you give a man the right tools to make others laugh, he (and they) laugh every day!"

As "Stand-up Decoded" teaches readers how to be as funny as they think they are, they are bound to find themselves laughing as they flip through the pages filled with endless wit, humor and amusement.
