* PayingTheirDues: [[invoked]] Almost every comic who appears as a guest will talk about having to work short sets at strange hours in the hopes of connecting with audiences or impressing a more-established name who could make the right introductions. Those who came up through the Comedy Store, including Marc, also talk about having to deal with Mitzi Shore, the owner, and having to stay on her good side while dealing with her idiosyncratic opinions on what was funny and appealing.
