Podcast Atlanta invited me out to their event to speak on the power of comedy in podcasting. I have been thinking about getting into the speaking world for a while and this experience has inspired me to stop thinking and start doing. I hope this speech also inspires you to find your own voice in comedy or podcasting and start reaching a new audience!
