I Was So High I Forgot My Entire Set| Tony Cruz

Tony Cruz was so high at his first open mic he forgot every joke he wrote. What happened next almost made him quit comedy forever. Tony Cruz walked into his first open mic at the Shrunken Head in 2018 after getting high on free weed in the back patio. When the lights hit his face, he forgot every single joke he'd written. Seven years later, he's one of Columbus's most consistent comics. In this episode, Tony breaks down his journey from being a painter who thought his life was "too boring for comedy" to developing a style that lets him take massive swings on race, politics, and identity - and actually land them. 00:00 - Cold Open 00:16 - Intro: Tony Cruz 01:23 - How Kill Tony sparked the dream 02:34 - Seeing Lucas Mateos: "I'm like this guy" 03:41 - "My life isn't interesting enough for comedy" 04:27 - The back of the bus energy 05:23 - Rewriting other people's jokes 06:28 - Workshop moments that build confidence 07:01 - Taking big swings (and missing) 08:03 - The "real wigga shit" moment in Dayton 09:13 - First Open Mic: The Shrunken Head story 10:24 - Forgot every joke, just kept talking 11:07 - The joke that became a real bit 11:51 - Second mic: 6 beers, 2 drunk Irish guys 12:30 - Third set: Bombed sober, almost quit 13:19 - Writing out sets verbatim 15:32 - "You come off douchey" - self-awareness on stage 17:06 - Setting up race jokes by roasting yourself first 17:39 - The border crisis fence joke 18:25 - Antagonizing crowds (on purpose) 19:33 - Advice: Get into comedy to have fun 21:11 - Why fun is the only thing that matters 21:34 - Where to find Tony Cruz 23:19 - Outro Tony B Cruz has been doing standup in Columbus, Ohio for 7 years.
