#179 - Jeremiah Watkins (2018): Kill Tony Stories, Bombing on Stage, Roast Battle, Jeremiah Wonders
Hot Breath! (Learn Comedy from the Pros)06/10/19 • 61 min
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.
