Show notes
Marc sits down with Philadelphia comedian and one half of "Stand Up Guys" podcast. Jake is one of the local standouts who has elevated his presence past Philadelphia with appearances at the Big Sky and Boston comedy festivals. Jake talks about how being raised during the "Jackass" era led to his love of the performing arts. Jake landed his big break after taking a comedy writing class at Temple which parlayed into a monologue intern role for CONAN. Jake talks in depth about how writing for CONAN influenced his writing today and how he took some of the harsh things that have been said about him and turn them into brilliant self-deprecating bits. As Jake will tell you himself, "comedy needs a victim." Enjoy! Chapters: Early Years
