This is Funny, Right?

Listen in as Maggie and I finally sit down with Dustin Burwell, who is often mentioned on the show, to talk comedy. Dustin is one of the hardest working comedians in Michigan. Aside from creating great shows, he also does all of the promotion and marketing to gather big crowds. Dustin hosts multiple events from monthly shows to filing large theaters for one-nighters. Booking only the best comedians (such as myself), Dustin is putting on some of the best line-ups that keep the crowds coming back for more.

You can see Dustin perform at Seriously Funny Productions next Movie Premiere Showcase for Star Wars: The Last Jedi on December 15th.

In this episode we sit down with friend and fellow comedian Sam Rager. We tease her about her love life as we've seen it blossom from the first episode she was. Also we loosely talk comedy in preparation for our Thor Movie Premiere Showcase.

Listen in as I sit down with Michigan native Adam Degi and every Kalamazoo comic ever. Adam got his start in Grand Rapids, MI. He's done everything from hosting a game show and performing stand up at colleges as well as taking his act to clubs and festivals around the country. He won the Funniest Person in Grand Rapids Competition in 2009 and was in the Semi - Finals of the Comedy 10K in 2014 as well as being featured on the Cover of Revue magazine.

His strangely endearing personality and ability to riff, rant and improvise sets him apart and makes every show unique. With an unapologetic, outspoken, unfiltered and often unscripted act it's difficult to tell when he's telling a joke or just getting something off his chest. Adam Degi is anything but predictable and when he has a microphone in his hand you never know what might happen so grab a seat and pay attention! His debut Album "His Name Is My Name Too was released in Sept, 2017. He once got a standing ovation from the Harlem Globetrotters.

One day he'd like to be black and entertain the world.

This episode is all over the place as it was recorded during a live show. I even step away during the recording to perform and leave all of the microphones unattended with a slew of comics. I leave around the 1:30:00 minuet mark. It's there that the interview with Adam ends unofficially. Feel free to keep listening and experience what it's like to be in the green room with a bunch of comics during a show. Notable mentions are Jason Alt, Tony Klee, John Campbell, and Bart Dangus.

Listen in as I sit down with local comic Christian Royce and talk about comedy and comic books in anticipation for the upcoming Thor Movie Premiere Showcase.
