I'd like to hear about when there os a good time to ask questions and what to ask and expect.

You can ask questions if you're hosting and doing crowd work, to get to know the audience. If you do it in your set, then ask open questions to the entire audience. One example I often use is to say I'm originally from Sweden, and then ask what comes to your mind when you hear Sweden. Then I have a joke prepared for the typical answers.

@ Thanks, that's very helpful. When you say doing crowd work do you mean that you're doing it as it's own section like before you start material or do you mean because you are hosting and aren't really doing material just keeping the crowd warm before the next comic comes up?

Also, I know comics don't like to give up material but if you have a video I would love to know what your prepared answer is for that question and what are some of the best or the best answers you've had from the crowd when they think of Sweden?
