Joe Braza ~ The Soul Comedian

About Me

I love to make people laugh which is why I became a stand-up comedian. It is my calling and it's something that I absolutely need to do, because, the world is a better place when it's filled with laughter. I've always had a huge interest in Philosophy. Sometimes I'll spend hours doing nothing more than pondering the most profound questions of the Universe. Check out my blogs to see what I've been pondering. Click here to subscribe to my blog. In addition to performing stand-up comedy, I am writing a book titled - The Way of the Braza. It's a book that will help you know what time it is? AH YEAH!!!!

Oh and apparently, when I perform, people like to play the Joe Braza Drinking Game . The way to play the Joe Braza Drinking game is very simple. Basically, whenever Joe Braza says "Joe Braza", you take a sip of your drink. People have been known to get really tipsy, playing this game. Click here to add The Joe Braza Drinking Game.
