Comedy has been a passion of mine for 20 years running. My intro to stand up was the first days of Youtube, Dave Chappelle had bits of his first specials. The first full stand up special I saw was Katt Williams Pimp Chronicles Part 1, I watched the full special with bonus features in a hotel on HBO. Snoop Dogg's cameo is unbelievable. Starting around 2015 I started listening to Joey Diaz' podcast and that is what really snowballed my love for stand up. The business side, the fellowship of comedy, the horrifying sad side of it all. More than likely, your favorite comedian has a heart breaking story about their life behind the scenes. Chris Farley was self conscious about his weight and didn't believe that anybody loved him. Rodney Dangerfield's own mother belittled and demeaned him to the point of permanent psychological damage. Joey Diaz, while tripping on a hit of LSD at 16 years old, found his mother with a purple arm, dead on the kitchen floor from a major heart attack. All three guys at one time were the best working comedian in the world. It isn't the ability to make a random human giggle for a second. It's the power to turn darkness into light. As always, thank you for being here.. Next weekend the show goes on like normalYour fav internet disc jockey,Johnny Joke Book
