Live Podcast Readings

I perform live readings of my most favorite, funny and moving episodes from my acclaimed comedy podcast series, “LOL TAKE 2” (now in its 6th season). I have a handful of curated programs containing 4 episodes each, combined with witty and amusing banter, that audiences really seem to love. It’s akin to storytelling around a campfire with plenty of laughs and the occasional tear.

Programs can be customized/created/expanded for your group. For more information: #contact
