This week we had a special guest, Ali Kareem, who began his comedy career in Omaha and took the leap to move to a bigger city. He discusses the ins and outs of the Denver comedy scene and encourages up and coming comics to get out there and use the available stage time and make those out-of-state connections. This episode has a lot of advice for comedians, as well as stories from his time spent in Omaha.
Be sure to follow Ali Kareem on social media at @thehabibigang and check out his upcoming dates!
Direct message me on Instagram @justjossinaround and prepare to have your questions answered by some of Midwest’s best comedians!
We often take life too seriously and forget to stop and laugh at the silly things in life. If you’re looking to add a little lighthearted brevity to your day, come share a laugh with host and comedian, Joslyne DeBonis. Each episode we’ll be joined by a special guest, typically comedians, that will bring their stories and wit! You have questions, and we have advice.
