Dan Whitehurst talks about going from cop to comedy. Dan is a friend of mine from nearly the first few weeks I moved to Nashville in 1999. I knew al little about his backstory, but have always wanted to learn more about the man behind that impressive beard.
DAN WHITEHURST Show NotesWe talk about a variety of things including:
Past jobs as prison guard, detective and national guard Learning to tell stories and how he hones them Trying to do comedy during a basketball game An odd show at the Loft in Georgia with Keith Alberstadt The trade off of fun and money in the feature spot The hustle behind performing in Branson A shout out to Joey I.L.O. Why he moved out to the country ... and then back How the Nashville comedy scene has changed Working cleanerAnd a whole lot more!
