Episode #22 Artie "Papa Bear" Lopez

Episode #24 Jake Gallo

My guest this episode is none other than Ventura local comedian Jake Gallo. This cool cat has performed on stages of all kinds, from local pizza shops, and dive bars, to some of the biggest comedy clubs in the country. In addition to doing stand up comedy, he also produces and hosts his own stand up comedy shows.  Jake was one of the first comics to show me love and respect when I first started doing open mic comedy in Ventura. Since then he's been helpful in helping me navigate the comedy scene.  Raised in the 805, Jake still stays true to his roots by supporting the community and small business whenever he can. He also hosts his own podcast "The Raging Bullshitter With Jake Gallo" and co-hosts "Morning Sickness" with our good buddy Artie "Papa Bear" Lopez.  Follow him on Instagram @Jake.Gallo to stay up to date on upcoming shows.

Episode #22 Artie "Papa Bear" Lopez

This episode I catch up with my good friend Artie Lopez to see how we've each been handling the COVID-19 quarantine season.  As some of you may know, Artie Lopez is the host of Smoke N Mirrors Comedy Night, an open mic comedy show every Wednesday night at Gigi's cocktail lounge in Ventura. Along with producing his show, Artie also performs on his show and at other local open mics. However since the COVID-19 pandemic, he has now created an outdoor social distancing comedy show at a local little league baseball field in Oxnard and calls it "Jokes in the Outfield". He also co-host a podcast with his childhood friends, called "The Blunt Boiiis".  You can follow him on instagram and facebook for more info on upcoming shows.

Episode #21 Aaron Anderson & Jesse Campos

This episode of the podcast is brought to you by 'Anderson Comedy'. My friend Aaron Anderson joins me for a podcast during this quarantine season. Aaron recently got a new creative office space in Oxnard, so I had to stop by to see what was up. Jesse Campos also stopped by to join us on the podcast. Like myself, Aaron and Jesse are aspiring stand-up comedians. However due to the recent COVID-19 drama going on, we have not seen a stage or live audience in months. This was a nice opportunity to get together and talk about what we've been up to in quarantine and we also reminisced on our fond times in high school. Enjoy as we sit down and shoot the shit.  Follow @andersoncomedy and @zeldahunk on instagram! Also watch Jesse stream his games on twitch.tv/zeldahunk
