Hi! My name is Carl Johnson. I'm a working comedian from Michigan and have been doing stand up comedy since 2010. I'd like to think of this as the unofficial Michigan comedy podcast. I know what you're thinking. "Michigan has a comedy scene"? Yes...and it's very good! There's a lot of talented, funny people here, more than you think. I love talking to funny, complicated humans. They're my people. I sit down with a Michigan comedian or a comedian with Michigan ties each week and it's an honest, raw, and fun conversation. Join me to get to know one of the most underrated comedy scenes in the country and the funny people behind it.

Ep 65 - Life After Comedy w/ Dan Currie
In this special episode, Carl sits down virtually with former comedian, Dan Currie! Dan was a staple of the Lansing scene for about 13 years. He was a fantastic comedian and ran one of the most successful comedy shows at Mac's Bar. Everyone wanted to be on that show and it meant something if you got on. Comics from the East side of the state would make the drive. The two catch up and talk comedy, why Dan called it quits and much more!
