About this service

Summary

I have hundreds of hours of experience in front of an audience performing, writing, & directing comedy. I've taught many famous folks over the years. I have an MFA in Story Structure. I've won several festivals and awards, but most importantly, I know how to find the stakes that stimulates an audience.

Q: But, why aren't you in Hollywood if you're so good?
A: Good question. Here's a list:
  • Hollywood is terrible. My skill set is writing, performing, and teaching. My skill set is NOT sending edible arrangements to someone who knows someone who "dated" the personal assistant of Josh Hartnett
    • I left a sketch comedy career in Chicago (Second City) to get an MFA in Story Structure to write much better. Then I moved to Austin, TX where I write, teach and perform locally till my heart is full
  • The funniest people are not in Hollywood. They're around you every day. They just didn't pursue a comedy career because they have actual logic floating around in their brains. Must be nice. I have the blessing to write whatever I want, instead of running it by a table of 90 year old producers for feedback
    • Also, let's be honest: 90% of sketch shows are terrible because nepotism wins in Hollywood
  • I write/direct comedy nearly every day. I get commissioned because I'm a pro. But you have to trust me. Some people don't, and we have to split ways, which is fine
    • I have ZERO hangups with receiving or giving feedback
    • My feedback always about structure, not your sense of humor
    • Hollywood has no idea how to approach crypto
I have 4 years of full-time degenerate Crypto experience:
  • I've been trading shitcoins & NFT's for the past 4 years: DeFi, Gaming, PFP's, Farming, Staking, Restaking said Staked rewards to stake collateralized coins that launched 30 seconds ago out of thin air...
  • I've been grinding for dear life up in nasty Discords and Telegrams, winning meme contests, Art contests, losing my mind, making videos...
  • I've been reading charts and using Technical Analysis and taking notes for 4 years...SO much potential for comedy in TA videos (low budget too)
  • I know all the main characters of crypto: SBF, Su Zhu, Do Kwon, CZ, Cobie, Inversbrah, Slurp the Dipperino (which is my fave phrase), the Polkadot Sheister Family, BitBoy (of course), Philakone...
    • Jesus, there are so many sociopaths in this space...
