Educated Insanity got the chance to talk with Longhorn the Comedian, creator of the website HelpfulComic.com. We talk about the variety of resources on the website, how comedians should carry themselves in a professional manner, and how the digital age has become a great tool for the promotion of comedians.
A professional wrestler turned Stand -up Comedian. Jay’s antics during wrestling promo’s and in-ring interviews made it almost natural for him to make the transition from the squared circle to the stage.
Jay first hit the stage at Chicago’s famous Checkerboard Lounge during their “Too Much Talent Tuesday’s” showcase. He has since worked his craft and been able to enter a variety of local and national competitions performed in various comedy festivals and have worked in a variety of comedy clubs around the country Jay’s quick wit, high energy, lovable personality and size make him not only impressionable but also very memorable.
Jay has opened the stage for the likes of Tommy Davidson, Leon Rogers, Mark "Skippy" Price, Dobie Maxwell, Tim Slagle, from the movie Barbershop-Jay Deep, just to name a few and has played in clubs most notably the Chicago Improv and Riddles Comedy Club where he has become a house MC.
