His stand-up Półczłowiek, półgłówek (“Half Man, Half Fool”) was released on YouTube in 2020 and won the Golden Mic for best online recording. He also received the Golden Mic for stand-up comedian of the year for 2020. In 2022, Szumowski and Michał Leja performed the stand-up show RE:fleksje (“RE:flections”).
