After moving to LA from Kansas at the age of 20, Jeremiah Watkins has become one of the most influential players in the LA comedy network. I've been a fan of Jeremiah's since seeing him in action on the Roast Battle's wave a few years ago. He is hands down one of the most dynamic performers I have ever seen and breaks down how how he does it on this week's episode. Not only can he kill a stage but also runs some of the most popular shows at The Comedy Store.
Must Hear Moments:

  • Moving to LA from Kansas at age 20
  • Navigating the LA comedy scene
  • Training with Keegan Michael Key at Second City
  • Making comedy a full-time job
  • The real hustle of comedy
  • Bombing in front of friends
  • Comedy Store stories
  • Celebrity personality traits
  • How to create characters live on stage
  • Why all comics should learn improv
