In episode 169 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I’m joined by the incredibly funny and endlessly entertaining Bryan O'Gorman, a stand-up comic who has performed on some of the world’s biggest comedy stages, including MTV, Much Music, The Comedy Network, Just For Laughs, and international festivals like Edinburgh Fringe and Melbourne Comedy Festival.
Bryan’s chosen word for this episode is Fun Seeker—a mantra he lives by in his comedy and life. We dive into his journey as a stand-up comic, from finding flow states and chasing laughs to balancing comedy with relationships. Bryan also shares stories about his comedy album, Art Sniffer (out now on Spotify and Apple Music), advice he’d give his younger self, and even his thoughts on aliens.
