Part 5/15:
A deep appreciation for the unpredictability of stand-up is expressed. Fahim describes comedy as an art form that cannot be fully prepared for in solitude; instead, it thrives on real-time audience feedback. Inflections, timing, and performance nuances are crucial, much like jazz improvisation, where small variations—sometimes subtle changes in delivery—make or break a joke. Fahim underscores that these performance aspects are not scripted; they are improvised mastery, honed through constant performing.
