  • #4- Over The Cuckoo's Nest
    Jul 28 2025

    After a tough few weeks, I’m finally feeling like myself again — a little scratched up, but stronger. In this episode, I share what helped me turn the corner. If you’ve been feeling off or stuck, this one’s for you. You’re not behind — you’re becoming. Back to our regularly scheduled programming next week.

  • #3- Rock Meet Bottom
    Jul 7 2025

    This episode wasn’t easy to make.
    I didn’t feel like showing up. I didn’t feel like pretending everything was okay. But I hit record anyway—not because I had something profound to say, but because I promised to be honest here.

    This episode is raw. It’s vulnerable. It’s about what it feels like to keep going when hope is hard to find.

    If you’ve ever felt like disappearing, or like your story doesn’t matter—this one’s for you.

    Thank you for listening.

  • #2- Evolving Happiness and Unicorns (w/ Mark Brady)
    Jun 30 2025

    This week on The Happy Half Hour, I sit down with my longtime friend and fellow comedian, Mark Brady.

    We talk about the pressure to make stand up work as a career, what it feels like to let go of old expectations, and how joy sometimes shows up in the most ordinary, unpolished moments.

    Mark brings honesty, humility, and a great way of finding happiness in the everyday.

    Thanks for being here.

  • #1- Honestly, Me
    Jun 20 2025

    In the very first episode of The Happy Half Hour, I sit down with… well, myself.

    Before I start asking other people the 7 questions about happiness, I figured I should answer them honestly first.
    What does happiness mean to me? Am I happy right now? What’s something I thought would bring joy—but didn’t?

    This episode is raw, personal, and a little scary—but that’s the point.
    Because real happiness starts where honesty begins.

    Thanks for listening to this new chapter.
    New episodes drop every Monday.
