[Taking a quick breather as we gear up for season 2 and we’re re-releasing a few of our all-time favorite and most popular episodes. These are conversations that listeners like you have RAVED about. Enjoy & and stay tuned for some exciting season 2 guests!]
If you've ever scrolled through your Instagram or TikTok feed, there's a good chance you've seen a guy resembling a mildly stoned hippy. Long white beard, Einstein hair & delivering a blend of homespun wisdom and wisecracks. Sound familiar? Then you've seen today's guest - Comedian Rodney Norman!
He's pushing 1 million followers on TikTok and his content gets an incredible number of views. He's built a cultlike following of raving fans and has the merch to prove it!
Just a sidenote here: I had to hide the fanboy side of me for this one. I was super stoked to have a comedian of this caliber spend an hour with me and really open up about a number areas. Rodney is just like you would expect him to be...down to earth, personable and of course...FUNNY! I promise you'll enjoy this episode!
Some highlights from our conversation:
- Rodney's first comedic routine back at the early age of 5
- How does he decide if if a bit is funny?
- The future of comedy - can you be funny and not get cancelled?
- The surprising entrepreneurial aspects of comedy.
- How to get the audience to want you!
