#158 - Caleb Synan (2015) - Moving to LA, Booking Last Comic Standing, Religion and Comedy - a podcast by Joel Byars: Comedian & Author

Caleb Synan first interview from 2015 explores his past as a local preacher’s kid with a southern gentleman’s charm.

Wake up and tune in to this inspirational tale of faith.
