RODGER LIZAOLA COMEDY
Congratulations on making it back into the finals of the Seattle International Comedy Competition, Rodger! Oh, I loves me a Clubber Lang reference! Why, thank you, Peter Greyy! In , the first round was, by the fourth night, a lock. And that, man, you thought you made it! What made you start doing stand-up? Game 6 and Game 7, win or go home. Getting out of the first 2 rounds!
I knew I could do it, but damn, when I heard my name called as having come in 4th place for the week? Watch some football and enjoy comedy in Seattle for a month. What was the Seattle comedy scene like when you started? Representing Seattle, Washington…Rodger Lizaola! What will that mean to you? And the biggest challenge for you this year?
Representing Seattle, Washington…Rodger Lizaola!

Living in the Bay Area is a lot like Seattle, except with less stage time for a champ like me…but probably the same amount unicorn comics. I told myself that I wanted MY picture on that wall. And, when I started at the Comedy Underground, they had the big pictures of the winners of the comedy competitions on the wall. Any predictions for your fellow finalists in this competition, Rodger?
I think my favorite moment was having my back against the wall the last 2 nights of the semi-finals.
Why, thank you, Peter Greyy! And, maybe, give your name to Ronnie…to host on the weekend.
MEET A SICC FINALIST: Rodger Lizaola | Seattle International Comedy Competition
Any rodter plans coming up for you after the competition ends? This is the fourth of five interviews with the comedians who made the Finals of the 34th Annual Seattle International Comedy Competition.
You started comedy in Seattle, yes? So you were definitely influenced strongly by the local scene—they became your comedy heroes? Is it different this time? And that, man, you thought you made it! In the grand scheme of things, winning a competition does not matter as much as how many twitter followers or how many YouTube views you have.
Congratulations on cmedy it back into the finals of the Seattle International Comedy Competition, Rodger! Yes, I did start here in Seattle at the Comedy Underground in And now, I have another chance to do that…and I want to make that happen. My fantasy in comedy and is to be so successful in show business that ultimately I can ordger out venues and just do stand up foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Inthe first round was, by the fourth night, a lock. I was sitting in 8th lizakla the fourth night, although only a half a point from fifth.
They used to do a different line up for every night for the anniversary of the Comedy Underground and it was so fun to watch that…every show. Of the heroes part. What made you start doing stand-up? Oh, I loves me a Clubber Lang reference!
What was the Seattle comedy scene like when you started? What will that mean to you? Expect the best sets of my life.

MEET A SICC-34 FINALIST: Rodger Lizaola
This competition began on November 4th with the 32 comedians selected from those lizaolq applied or auditioned comedians from around the world as well as right here in our own backyard and it will end on December 1st with the crowning of a new champion from the five performers who have survived in this competition all the way to participate in this Finals Week.
Game 6 and Game 7, win or go home. Even in the semi-finals that year, although not at all a cake walk, I knew that on the last night, all I had to do was, pretty much, do what I did all week and I should be fine.
To piggy back on the previous question, it would mean a lot to me. Buy a couple suits and some Converse. Made the semis and was not at all in sync the first 3 nights.
Our subject for this fourth interview is the only performer in the finals who has previously competed in this event. Follow along with this year’s competition official Flickr photos.
I believe this is his fourth time as a participant—the most recent time, inwhen he made the finals.
