Jon Orlando - From Stage Lights to Podcast Mics
There's a certain magic that happens when you find yourself at a crossroads, and a friendship lights the way to a new path. That's what unfolded with my dear friend and founder of Sticky Paws Studios, Jon Orlando, as his sage advice set me on a journey of well-being and led to the creation of my own podcast. Our latest episode is a celebration of transformation and laughter, where Jon and I reflect on everything from sobriety and health to the quirks of being raised in the glow of celebrity.
In a series of heartwarming and downright hilarious exchanges, Jon and I traverse memories of early stand-up escapades and the bittersweet nature of fame. We share stories about opening for legendary performers like Tony Orlando and the unexpected directions life can take us. From exhilarating festival stages to intimate comedy clubs, we expose the raw and often humorous trials that shape a comedian's life. Even if you can't tell Kenny G from Rocky G, you'll appreciate the conspiracy theories and candid moments that come from decades of navigating the entertainment industry.
As we wrap up the show, gratitude is the chord that resonates—the kind that comes from life's unexpected opportunities and the friendships that bolster us through tough times. We take you behind the scenes of the eclectic and exhilarating world of Action Junkies and muse about the future of performance in the age of social media. Whether it's coordinating battle outfits or sending off loving goodbyes, Jon and I underscore this episode with a simple truth: it's the relationships and experiences that truly shape our lives, on stage and off. Join us for an episode that's as touching as it is entertaining, and remember to cherish the laughs along the way.
