Stand-up comedy host: Leonardo

Stand-up comedy host, bright, wry, and self-deprecating

Prompt： A bright, wry male voice for a stand-up-comedy podcast. His relaxed mid-tenor has great timing, mining comedy and craft together, fun and self-deprecating. There's a bombing-taught-me-everything honesty in his tone. The sound of a host who makes the brutal life of a comic feel hilarious and weirdly noble.

Script： So I ate it on stage last night. Full silence. The kind where you can hear a single ice cube shift in a glass at the back of the room. And you know what? It was the best thing that could have happened, because bombing is the only real teacher this job has. The laughs lie to you.
