have been doing stand up comedy? How long? Thirteen years this month?
And where was the very first place you ever did stand up comedy? At
the Theater in Augustana in front of three hundred and twenty people. And were
you going to school there at the time. I was, Yeah, I
studied acting at Augustana and when I started, I did improv comedy okay,
right, which is like whose line is it anyway? You know that kind
of stuff, sketches and stuff like that. And then I was a bad
student, so I was stuck there for an extra couple of years, and
so all my friends that I would make funny with were leaving. I was
like, I got to figure out how to do this by myself. Yeah,
and so I took an independent study for stand up comedy because I was
always interested in it. Yeah, there's a picture of me. When I
was nine, I did a characterture at the Mall of America, and all
I could talk about was becoming a professional rollerblader and doing stand up comedy.
And so there's a there's a characterture of me at nine doing stand up comedy
on Rollerblades. No, they skipped, and I remember leaving the characters like
that. I was like, I really wanted I want. I wanted to
be a rollerblader. And my mom was like, you only talked about doing
impressions. Yeah, were you doing impressions? I was doing impressions. Yeah.
I think I had a you know, Arnold Schwarzenegger at the time,
which is great in a nine year old voice. Yeah, I'll be back.
It was a soprano at the time. So I am a huge fan.
I'm a big fan of n no I And and here's the thing.
We get a chance to work together quite a bit, so so I know
him not only as a guy on the on the stage telling jokes, but
I know him as a friend as well. And when you fall in love
with him because of his act on stage, and you know, you're just
such a genuine guy. He's a very funny guy. Once you get to
know him, you realize that's all fake. He's not a nice guy.
I know, I'm a complete brick. He's a great guy. You're a
great dude. And we've had a chance to spend some time together on the
road. And again, I've probably spent way more time with him than he
would like. So just know I never stopped talking. I need more,
John Small, I would like to tell my stories every once in a while.
Yeah, And he's like, well, it's been a fun nine hour
trip, so can I say something now? But no, Nade is a
hilarious dude. And if you don't already have your tickets, I encourage you
to get the tickets and the comedy special. When this is done, do
you already know? Like when that? How long will it take to get
that finished? It'll depend on distribution, if so, so the process.
Normally what they'll do is somebody will pay you to do one of these,
and so what I I'm trying to flip it. I'm trying to do it
and then sell it afterwards. So it may never come out on a publication.
I could just self release it. We don't have any idea we're gonna
We're gonna try to find out make sure it's everything I want. Yeah,
before I start committing to a release schedule, but for sure I will have
a stand up comedy album. Nice. So whether the video will be released
as a full video special is yet to be seen, but for sure I
will have a comedy CD. And the cool thing is on the sixteenth you
get a chance to see him on stage. And I love this style of
comedy because you tell stories. Yeah, you know, it's not like set
up punchline, set up punchline, set up punchline. You know some of
those stories definitely, Yeah, But I love like the long form where you've
got stories you literally real people in and it just it gets better and it
gets better and it gets better, and it just kind of builds to this
crescendo and then it's like, oh, that was the best. So I'm
a big fan and I'm excited to see you on the sixteenth. Thank you
