The Art of Standup and Embracing Opportunities with Jonesy - a podcast by Dan Cumberland: Career & Meaning Consultant, Speaker, Blogger

Our guest today is a Comedian and Actor..  He’s been a part of shows like Drunk History, Gotham, and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and more. He also hosts the podcast: Weird AF News - the only daily weird news show recorded in a closet with more than 1200 episodes and millions of downloads. 

In this conversation I get to deep dive with Jonesy into his work, the world of standup comedy, and so much more.

It was a really fun conversation.  I’m fascinated by the art of standup and the incredibly challenging work that comedians go through to develop their acts.

I had a blast digging into all of this with Jonesy.  I think you’ll enjoy this one.
