• Discusses the challenges and rewards of producing comedy shows, including the behind-the-scenes work of promotion and content creation
• Explains how the Coachella Valley comedy scene is more collaborative and welcoming compared to larger markets
• Shares insights on his creative process, including when to write jokes and developing his own unique style
