Jordan Brady: You Gotta Ship It | Eyes on the Ground - a podcast by Slade Ham

In 2016 I had the privilege to join the cast of the third film in Jordan Brady’s I am Comic trilogy. Jordan is a commercial director now, and he’s a seasoned documentarian, but he’s also directed Hollywood features, hosted MTV game shows, and in a lesser known piece of trivia, is the inventor of the phrase "bow chicka bow wow," which was a signature piece in a very successful stand up comedy career.

The film I’m in, I Am Battle Comic, looks at what it’s like to perform for the United States military overseas. It touts a star studded cast of comedians, much like the previous two films in the trilogy, I Am Road Comic, and the cult classic that started it all, I Am Comic.

I Am Comic features interviews with Phyllis Diller, Jeff Foxworthy, Lewis Black, Tim Allen, as well as a host of known and unknown names at the time, and I can’t recommend it enough as a primer on stand up comedy beyond what you see in a typical Netflix special.

More importantly, Jordan and I have become friends, and his optimistic approach to the world of entertainment is infectious. I sat down with him to find out the stories behind his and how he goes about making things.

Also, try Jordan’s Oso Delicious Hot Sauce.  I personally keep a bottle of each at the house, because the Texan in me loves a little heat.  Visit www.OsoDelicious.org, where $1 from every bottle bought, stolen, or broken goes to the National Military Family Association, another organization I care deeply about.
