John Heffron | Reza Rifts EP 320
I had an engaging conversation with comedian John Heffron about comedy evolution, social media impact, and performing dynamics in various venues. We discussed his experiences on 'Last Comic Standing,' the challenges of originality in comedy, and his ventures into children's book writing. We also talked about the differences between performing in clubs and theaters, and Heffron offered advice for aspiring comedians.
