NICK ARNETTE DENVER, SEATTLE, L.A. [EP. 128] - a podcast by Rik Roberts

Today I sit down with comedian and keynote speaker Nick Arnette. Nick has lived and performed comedy in Denver Seattle and L.A. However, I met Nick this summer in Des Moines, IA while doing a Speakers Bureau Showcase. Nick had a great set and I wanted to make sure to follow up and get his story soon after the showcase.
