Standup

After years of writing material, some college improv experience, and the occasional attempt to write funny songs, I decided to give standup a serious shot in 2016 in Houston. I appeared on a couple of showcases and for a time booked twice-monthly shows at Khon’s Bar.

I wasn’t able to do as much standup in 2018 while I was working in Fayetteville, Arkansas, but I performed a few sets there. In 2019 I moved to Denver for a job and my performing became more sporadic, but I still get on the mic from time to time.

With the COVID-19 pandemic, obviously I haven’t been performing live very much. But I am podcasting, as you’ll see below.

You can see two sets of mine from showcases at PJ’s Sports Bar in Houston here. The first is from July 2017; the second is from September 2018.

Podcast

After some initial false starts over the last couple of years, I’ve got a podcast going at last. My Houston comic friends Drew Hollway and Justin Massengale join me on mic; the podcast is mostly conversational / improvised comedy on what’s on our mind, or going on in the world, or on the internet. A lot of that is making bad puns, lowbrow jokes, or song parodies when we can’t think of anything else.

New episodes of Community Shower drop every Friday. We’re on SoundCloud and Podbean; see below for our SoundCloud playlist. (If you go to my SoundCloud account, you’ll also see a couple of episodes Justin and I recorded of our previous podcast, as well as a few demo tracks of songs I wrote and recorded in 2019.)
