And so that is true.

something that genuinely did happen.

No One Tells You to Be a Comedian with Josh Johnson

Like I graduated and I moved to Chicago to start doing comedy, but also Chicago was one of those secondary markets where you could join a union or get into that sort of like off Broadway style of design because there is so much happening in the way of

like offbeat production in Chicago.

No One Tells You to Be a Comedian with Josh Johnson

You know, I just had a decision to make.

No One Tells You to Be a Comedian with Josh Johnson

for periods of time.

Like, I think that whenever I went to, like, let's say I started a new school, super quiet, super off to myself and everything.

tried to make as many friends as possible and meet as many people as possible and have conversations with people and everything.
