Idea: Franchising of standup comedy open mics (and possibly other types of shows, like burlesque) by selling promotional templates, merch, and maybe even audio equipment as a package to people who want to run shows in other towns

Idea: Virtual or in-person community where (mostly amateur) creative people of different disciplines (sketch comedy, standup comedy, acting, film-making, animation, etc.) meet each other and collaborate on projects

A standup comedy contest where comics compete one-on-one in a tournament bracket. Each night, 8 comics compete in 3 rounds, until a winner for the night is declared. After 8 shows, the 8 past winners compete in the same fashion to declare an ultimate winner. The first two rounds of the night are decided by overall audience applause immediately after the two competing comics perform. The last round of the night is decided by 7 pseudo-random audience members, who are chosen to be voters because they do not appear to be brought to the show by either of the two comics who made it to the final round, thus ensuring a more honest vote
