  • In episode 165 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I sit down with stand-up comic Steph Neale to talk all things comedy and creativity! Steph’s brand-new comedy special Messy Girl is out now, and her chosen word for this episode, Messy, sets the tone for an honest and hilarious conversation.

    We discuss her move to Vancouver, how she got her start in comedy, and the ups and downs of creating her comedy album. Steph shares her best story of bombing on stage and the lessons she learned, like why doing all-new material for your friends isn't always the best idea. We also chat about growing out of old material, collaborating with comedians by giving them tags for their jokes, and the advice she’d give to her younger self.

We talk about the impact of growing up surrounded by community, the highs and lows of a comedian’s life—from applause to the quiet moments—and the finesse involved in timing jokes and delivering shock humor with skill. We also talk about why recording every set is crucial to capturing those unique moments, and we dig into how, in today’s world, being funny isn’t enough; building an online following is essential for reaching audiences far and wide.

  • In episode 148 of The Johnny Rogers Show I caught up with stand up comedian, Brian Holtzman! Brian is a legend in the comedy world especially when it comes to the short list of brave souls that would do late night sets at The Comedy Store. From being honorably discharged from the United States Air Force to being praised by Joe Rogan, we cover a lot in the podcast. Brian’s word for the episode was, “eclectic” so we talk all about why that word is important to him. We also get up close and personal as Brian finishes dinner while we chat. It was an honor to speak with this legend and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did. Brian Holtzman is a stand-up comic who performs regularly at Joe Rogan's Comedy Mothership in Austin Texas, as well as The Comedy Store in Los Angeles. In 2023 Brian Holtzman released his stand-up comedy special #CANCELHOLTZMAN now streaming on YouTube. Brian Holtzman was also featured in the Showtime documentary The Comedy Store (2020). Brian Holtzman is originally from Long Island, New York, where he graduated from General Douglas MacArthur High School. After being honorably discharged from the United States Air Force, Holtzman moved to the Bay Area, where he began performing stand-up at the Holy City Zoo, the Other Cafe, the Punchline and other clubs throughout Northern California, where he became a favorite. His often-perplexed scenarios of everyday life, intertwined with his own neurotic behavior, are not to be missed by any serious aficionado of comedy. Holtzman has added "actor" to his resume, having appeared on My Wife and Kids, Mind of Mencia, Minding the Store, and in movies like Pauly Shore Is Dead, Sheep Man, Foolish, and Looking for Lenny. Brian is the host and creator of the DEAD AIR series of podcasts streaming everywhere now.LISTEN AND SUBSCRIBE:PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/Thejohnnyrogers APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-johnny-rogers-show/id1652119790 SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/2SeYAHbIbsxTf8UChBAUIy YOUTUBE: /@TheJohnnyRogersShow + everywhere podcasts are availableFollow Brian Holtzman on social mediahttps://www.cancelholtzman.com/https://www.youtube.com/@BRIANHOLTZMANNOW https://www.instagram.com/brianholtzman https://twitter.com/HoltzmanBrian Follow Johnny Rogers on social mediahttps://www.instagram.com/thejohnnyrogersshow/https://www.twitter.com/TheJohnnyRogers https://www.facebook.com/TheJohnnyRogershttps://www.tiktok.com/@johnnylatenight https://www.twitch.tv/thejohnnyrogers https://www.spoti.fi/3uGt9U9 👕 GET MERCH: https://rdbl.co/3CuKoM4#BrianHoltzman #eclectic #thecomedystore #comedymothership #Podcast #TheJohnnyRogersShow#podcast #thejohnnyrogersshow
