John is one of the preeminent comedy promoters in the country. He concentrates on the Boston market. This is an absolutely hilarious conversation about everything comedy. John has hilarious stories about working with some of the biggest comedians in the business (especially the great Boston headliners Don Gavin and Nick DiPaolo). We also talk classic sit-coms like "Mash," "The Dick Van Dyke Show," "All in The Family," "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and of course how HOT Mary Tyler Moore was. John has GREAT stories growing up in Boston as a huge radio and tv fan. Hear how as a kid he wanted to be in show business, how working in radio led to being a doorman at a comedy club which led to him being one of the most important and influential comedy promoters.
