I am a 40 something midlife crisis public servant (Yeah a Cop! so what?) who just joined the elite of the local comedy scene in Phoenix. I didn't say I am one of the elite, I just hang out with them.
My comedy takes a variety of paths from the usual family/kid thing to growing up in the Ozarks to current issues of today. A lot of my material comes from the 27 years of being a cop. From undercover work to Homeland Security I have seen it all. This screwed up society of ours has given me much material to work with, so if you get a chance, come see me at one of the local comedy clubs to see something completely different than the run of the mill penis joke or political commentary. Or hire me out and see for yourself.
