Amanda Anderson's got a story or four to tell... and she's learned anytime we're feeling down, stressed, or drained, that laugher truly is the best medicine. Amanda talks to me about breaking into the comedy club scene and starting from zero as a budding stand-up comic via her first improve class.
Wearing a dozen different hats through different jobs and careers has given Amanda a curious look at lots of unique life situations. She's managed events for a multi-million dollar non-profit, worked on a Presidential campaign and co-founded a successful food truck.
Join Amanda and I, as she shares some stories from one of her most unique jobs, and asks herself if lying dead face down in a rock quarry may actually be an improvement! (She's fine, don't worry)...
You can see Amanda perform every so often and and especially at "Comedy Key West," an entertainment company that specializes in showcasing the best in live stand up comedy and original films in Key West, Florida.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
