Sideshow 107 - Dante The Comic (the activist, the manager, the teacher ...)

Carnival Personnel

If you’re a regular listener to this podcast (or follow Jacques on socials) and don’t follow Dante The Comic … well … you go right that wrong, NOW!

A personal hero of ours, Dante the Comic (Rusciolelli) zooms in (from the very cool Hollywood Forever Cemetery) to chat with Joe and Jacques about… SO MUCH.

Danta is a headlining (national and internationally) touring comic for 36 years. We chat with him about balancing his career as a comedian, as a manager-promoter and co-owner of Golden Artist Entertainment (which he owns and runs with his comedian/writer wife Rebekah Kochan) … as a producers/writer of profitable horror movies and arguably the most important hat he wears (aside from “dad” and “husband”) he relentless social justice work. Dante is constantly patrolling the Hollywood (LA) streets documenting the never-ending brutality of the LAPD.

We also chat the amazing 250+ and on-going, “Dante’s Comedy Tips” he post that is basically a FREE masters class Dante puts out for ALL LEVELS of comics from the open mic-ers to the house hold names with multiple specials on Netflix. How the business works, how to find, build, grow your material, contacts and brand.

A great comic and an amazing human being. Truly this is a time capsule episode.
