Professional speaking and stand-up comedy aren't that different. Both require you to hold an audience by expressing an idea that connects—often times, through stories.

You'll hear fine-tuned stories I've told a thousand times, and new ones that may never be told on stage. There's no single theme, but there are common threads—drawn from my life as a teacher, UFC fighter, family man and small-town kid with big dreams. You'll also hear some story-based interviews.
