    "I have read many books on comedy, and have taken LIVE courses, so I have absorbed lots of information. And THIS course has a TON of GOLD in it. I work for a few Hollywood studios, so I know how important comedy is to create a successful movie."

    “You're my new hero. This book is a much-needed resource for the thousands of comedians (including me!) who need no-nonsense, practical advice for generating ideas, fine-tuning material, overcoming challenges, developing an original style, and mapping out a career.”

    Hi, I'm Jared Volle

    I have been teaching stand-up comedy since 2010 and I actually practice what I preach when it comes to dominating on stage!

    I was a finalist at the Great American Comedy Festival and even an opener for comedian Kyle Cease (voted #1 Comedy Central special of 2009).

    I’ve performed shows with over a thousand people in the audience! I’ve struggled at open mics in dive bars at 1AM with a handful of drunk audience members and I’ve headlined sold-out shows. I’ve done it all.

    Throughout that time, I’ve been obsessed with what makes world-class comedians so much different than struggling open mic comedians.

    6 months after discovering these strategies

    I started opening for Kyle Cease

    ... And Kyle Cease is the real deal

  • Ranked #1 Comedy Central Special of 2009

  • 2x New York Times Bestselling Author

  • Ranked 9th On Billboard's Top Comedy Albums

  • Seen in "10 Things I Hate About You" & "Not Another Teen Movie"

  • One of the best dudes I've ever met

  • Faster & Funnier

    The Only PROVEN, Non-"Cookie-Cutter" Stand Up Comedy Course That Teaches You What Works For Today's Savvy Audiences!

    Step 1: Joke Psychology & Examples

    Each joke-writing guide starts with a deep dive into exactly how the joke creates humor. We go beyond the "structure" of the joke to see exactly what the audience is responding to so that your punchlines hit the bullseye.

    Step 2: Step-By-Step Writing Guide & Examples

    Concrete steps on every step of the writing process, from blank page to polished joke. Watch Jared take killer jokes and break them apart to show you how they were written.

    Step 3: Writing Walkthrough

    Peer over my shoulder as I go through the entire process, from a randomly generated writing prompt to finished joke. 

    • "Best. Course. Ever."

    • Best. Course. Ever.

      Jared has done his homework. And he’s as sharp as a piece of broken porcelain.

      For the beginning comic, just his fundamental advice about memorizing material at the expense of persona is invaluable, but that’s just a start. As a published author with a journalism degree, I can tell you his writing advice is spot on.

      But every single presentation and there are close to a 100 with variable lengths, has clear and concise information that will help the pro almost as much as it helps the novice.

      For novices, this course is indispensable. For pros, I guarantee Jared’s informative videos are still well worth your time.

      "Breaks down the walls we don't realize we put up for ourselves"

    • The Faster and Funnier program gives you the tools you need to not only become a good comic. It helps you break down the walls we don’t realize we put up for ourselves and harness your craft to become a great comic. If your are serious about becoming a professional comedian then this is a must have.

      A lesson that spoke to me the most was having to deal with hecklers. I always felt that my material was strong and could present it well. Hecklers could really throw me off. I would loose focus and or loose the audience because of my reactions. I found out how to deal with hecklers and embrace it into my act as to not loose the audience during my performances. This is one of many helpful concepts you will find in this program.

      It was SOOOO much easier to write!

    • Faster & Funnier is spot on. I just applied the storytelling techniques and it was soooo much easier to write material. Not only did it help me focus more on how I naturally talk and have conversations, it helped me weave multiple jokes I made for a premise into a more natural cohesive bit. I can’t wait to test this new stuff out next time I get on stage.
