Howdy boys and girls we’re back with another episode of the podcast and today’s guest is none other than the man responsible for some of the best artwork in the DMV area and even NYC.

What’s up everyone, it feels good to be back! Sorry I took a couple weeks off, I got the devil’s virus and it kicked my ass way harder than I thought it was going to, so rather than put out crappy episodes I figured I’d rest up and get myself back to normal. Today’s guest is one of the best dudes and one of the hardest working comics I know, Chris Alan. This episode was a lot of fun because Chris and I talk about shows and comedy but more importantly we talk about him getting ready for his album recording coming up! Be sure to follow Chris at @chrisalancomedy and be on the lookout for the follow up episodes as we go over him really getting ready to record and prepare for the album!

For anyone that listens that knows how hard comedy is right now, if you follow almost any hardworking comic from the upper east coast you have heard of Soul Joel and how he legit has changed the game for comedy during Covid! This episode was a lot of fun! We talk about comedy and then we talk about the process that Joel went through from being a standup, to a producer, a manager, and even a club owner!

Howdy boys and girls alright so for today’s guest we’ve got former Richmond, former DC, and now current New York City comic Nick Hopping. This episode was a good time in the making, we had been trying to link up for a while before we actually got to record the episode and it was a great one. We spent some good time talking about comedy but we spent just as much time plugging Nick’s debut comedy special “Giraffe in the Shed”.
