What the heck with Richard Dweck

richard dweck

Born December 28 1993, I am a self obsessed unintentional/ natural eccentric who is self-aware enough to self-deprecate but never change, somehow very love-able.
I sang in high school( decent tenor ), I did improv comedy from 2009 to 2016 and have been doing stand up since July 18 2015.
On this podcast I interview mostly comedians but also any creative content making person who piques my interest, on their start in their endeavor and how it is going

    Scott Kelley

    Scott Kelley is a stand-up comedian known for his clever writing and unique ability to turn life’s toughest moments into laughter. His comedy explores both the good and the bad sides of life, filtering everyday struggles through his own offbeat perspective. Scott isn’t afraid to joke about the topics most people avoid. Instead of ignoring life’s uncomfortable moments, he leans into them—finding humor where others might only see pain. His philosophy is simple: when we laugh at the things that hurt us, they lose their power. Through smart, thoughtful jokes, Scott gives audiences permission to laugh at life’s darker corners and walk away feeling a little lighter. Blending sharp observations with a reflective style, Scott’s comedy reminds audiences that even in difficult times, laughter can still find its way in. Scott Kelley was also a freelance writer for several outlets including iHeartRadio, BET, Geico, Target, Wal-Mart and various small businesses. In addition, Scott Kelley was a comedy writer for Second City's stage show "TMI Hollywood". In addition to the above, Scott Kelley has created 2 movies, "Timothy, Gods Son, The Other One" and "Revenge Plan" and created a TV series that is a mockumentary ghosthunting show called "Allegheny Spirit Society". All of these are ready to be pitched. Retro is in and Scott Kelley's humor brings that as evidenced by reviews for his first special on Prime Video called, "Word of Mouth" "Scott Kelley’s Word of Mouth is a comedy special that lands like a punchline you never saw coming—edgy, hilarious, and so good you’ll want to rewind just to catch your breath." - Eddie B. "I just watched this today. The jokes come fast and furious. I kept rewinding and replaying sections so I wouldn’t miss any of the jokes. Thirty minutes of hilarious one liners." - Allister "Funny content for a great new act on the scene. Others should be encouraged to have Scott join them on tour!" - Sam K. So book Scott Kelley now for your event, venue, comedy club, or corporate event.
