Standup comedians will perform thousands and thousands of times over the course of their careers...and it doesn't always go well. Every comedian handles "bombing" a little differently, and the lessons learned by comedians can help everyone cope with small embarrassments and frustrations in their everyday life. Aaron Weber is a standup comedian based in Nashville, TN. He is a regular performer at the Grand Ole Opry, making his debut in 2019 at the age of twenty-seven. Aaron is the youngest comedian ever to step into the Opry circle. He is also a co-host of The Nateland Podcast with comedians Nate Bargatze and Brian Bates. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

I’m a comic and just bombed at The Comedy Store. Ughhhhh. Nothing worse than hearing from your coworkers, “You’ll get em next time, Buddy.”

Let''s go folks! Dude you need to upload more of your standup. It's hard to find videos of you performing your stuff

"We're all bombing out here." I felt that in my soul.

There was a girl who farted in class while laughing 13 years ago. She was so embarrassed she had to transfer schools. She probably thinks nobody remembers, I do.

I bombed so badly at my first gig. On front of around 200 people I froze 3.50 minutes into a 5 minute set and just stood there staring into space like a deer in headlights! After about 10 seconds (which is a really long time up there!) the audience felt sorry for me and started sympathy-clapping and I just mumbled 'Thank you so much for having me and shuffled off the stage in shame! lmao! I feel your pain! x

This was amazing! Well delivered and a great message. I too keep a spreadsheet of every stand up gig I have ever done.

We heard you last night at The Grand Ole Opry. You had us rolling with laughter. Thanks for the laughs. We especially like the Number 1 Dad hat from the Good Will, running out of gas, so funny

I once saw a comedian bomb horrendously at the Edinburgh Fringe. One of the most painful experiences of my life. I still tell people about it when the subject of stand up comedy comes up. So yeah, we remember.
