    The first time Jay Valdez performed a standup comedy set, he bombed…epically…in front of his entire High School senior class at a talent show….while wearing a fedora. More than 15 years later, he’s one of the bright new talents in the San Antonio comedy scene. While evaluating his first year in comedy, Jay exceeded goals he set for himself but that ain’t enough. He’s got at least 1,900 more open mics and showcases to perform in the years to come before he considers himself a true standup comic. He’s gonna get there soon because of his talent, hustle, and also by creating attainable goals along the way. A must-listen episode!

    Comedian Jay Scott gave me a piece of advice that finally motivated me to begin my journey into standup comedy. Until we recorded this episode, he had no idea of the impact of that advice. Jay started performing comedy at a very young age and talks about his journey, with the highs and lows, beginning out of Indianapolis and currently in San Antonio.

    While my ADHD sometimes gets in the way of my creative process (and life process for that matter), standup comic Victor Mendoza turned his into a superpower. He shares some of his tricks and hacks to keep him focused on creating new material.

    Victor also talks about the importance of establishing a connection with your audience by introducing yourself through your comedy, marketing yourself as a business/entrepreneur, and developing your much-needed social media presence.

    Ep 15 - Destined For Comedy - Tiger Ruiz
    Oct 9 2022
    Love Life’s Comedy Podcast Ep 15 - Destined For Comedy - Tiger Ruiz

    Tiger Ruiz headlined the first showcase I hosted back in October and he crushed it. In this episode he talks about despite being the funniest person in his family, he never considered pursuing standup. Finally, at his wife’s suggestion, he took that risk and hasn’t looked back. We also talked about how three years in Eastern Washington made him a better comic today, developing your writing style true to your own voice, and much more!

    Ep 14 - ASAP Comedy Reunion Part 2 - Kristen Howard and Sara Minor
    Oct 6 2022
    Love Life’s Comedy Podcast Ep 14 - ASAP Comedy Reunion Part 2 - Kristen Howard and Sara Minor

    In this episode, I catch up with one of my ASAP Comedy Bootcamp instructors, Kristen Howard, as well as my classmate Sara Minor. Each of us have our own path towards comedy, but one thing we all have in common is we’re all Veterans. ASAP Comedy Bootcamp was a way to build camaraderie and create lasting friendships. Sara talks about how her experience learning comedy helped her during a time of personal tragedy, while Kristen recalls how her fellow ASAP Veterans helped her to remember and be proud of her own military service.

    Ep 911 - Reliving September 11th... Every Day
    Sep 24 2022
    Love Life’s Comedy Podcast Ep 911 - Reliving September 11th… Every Day

    One of my co-workers at the Pentagon, Gerald Tucker, joins us for our annual “buddy check” - a tradition we started while we were both still on Active Duty. We also introduce a special re-airing of our conversation from September 11, 2021 titled “Surviving 9/11…20 Years Later” - a powerful, yet motivating episode.

    Originally recorded and live-streamed on “The Manhood Is A Skill Set Show”, we commemorated the 20th anniversary of that day.  We were also joined by recurring guest/co-host Miles Cunningham, who lived and worked in New York City back then. We shared our first-hand experiences in New York City and Washington, DC on that day and the immediate aftermath.
