    Danny Johnson | Comedy Den Podcast #5

    After decades mastering his craft on stages across the country, Danny Johnson is finally having his moment. In this episode of The Comedy Den Podcast, host Jared Monroe Mittelo (CEO of Honest Fox Media) sits down with Danny — a veteran stand-up and one of the funniest voices in clean comedy you've never heard of. From the legendary Boston comedy scene to working alongside Howie Mandel, Norm Macdonald, and Bob Saget, Danny built a career the right way — through grit, patience, and professionalism long before social media ever noticed. Now, with his breakout Honest Fox Comedy special release, Danny proves it's never too late to shine when you've spent a lifetime getting ready for the spotlight.

    Troy Conrad | Comedy Den Podcast #4

    From stand-up stages to shutter clicks, in this episode of The Comedy Den Podcast, host Jared Monroe Mittelo (CEO of Honest Fox Media) sits down with Troy Conrad — the iconic comedy photographer behind the lens of Joe Rogan, Tom Segura, Gabriel Iglesias, and just about every major comic working today. Together they trace Troy's unlikely path from stand-up comic to creator of the hit show Set List, to capturing the golden age of modern comedy through his legendary hallway photos at The Comedy Store and Rogan's Mothership. They also dig into the art of valuing your work, the faith it takes to build a creative career from scratch, and how a single photo — or a Bob Saget late-fee story — can change everything.
