After a life long career in public speaking in professional business settings, I have spent the last 10 years performing Stand-Up Comedy. Also 4 years ago I started interviewing the best of the Mid-West Comedians. I now have taken the time to sort through all those podcasts, and go back with a battery of specific questions on the Art of Stand-Up  for my Comedian guests so I can share all of this great information on what it takes to be a really good Stand-Up Comedian.
