In this debut episode of Who Gave Jeff Allen a Podcast?, Jeff Allen and co-host Carollynn Xavier kick things off with comedian, actor, and world-class juggler Ron Pearson. From street performing at age 10 to taking fourth in the world as a juggler, Ron shares his journey from the streets of Seattle to Hollywood's biggest stages.
Jeff, Carollynn, and Ron swap stories about stand-up comedy, the evolution of clean humor, the challenges of working in clubs versus churches, and even how juggling, ADHD, and stock trading somehow all connect.
🎙️ Topics Covered:
✅ The reality of working in comedy for decades
✅ Why clean comedy is harder (but worth it)
✅ Hecklers, club nightmares, and crazy audience interactions
✅ The financial ups and downs of entertainment careers
✅ Finding your "why" in comedy and life
This episode is full of laughs, wisdom, and a few ridiculous tangents—exactly what you’d expect from a podcast that no one asked for, but everyone needs.
