Listen in as I sit down with Michigan native Adam Degi and every Kalamazoo comic ever. Adam got his start in Grand Rapids, MI. He's done everything from hosting a game show and performing stand up at colleges as well as taking his act to clubs and festivals around the country. He won the Funniest Person in Grand Rapids Competition in 2009 and was in the Semi - Finals of the Comedy 10K in 2014 as well as being featured on the Cover of Revue magazine.
His strangely endearing personality and ability to riff, rant and improvise sets him apart and makes every show unique. With an unapologetic, outspoken, unfiltered and often unscripted act it's difficult to tell when he's telling a joke or just getting something off his chest. Adam Degi is anything but predictable and when he has a microphone in his hand you never know what might happen so grab a seat and pay attention! His debut Album "His Name Is My Name Too was released in Sept, 2017. He once got a standing ovation from the Harlem Globetrotters.
One day he'd like to be black and entertain the world.
This episode is all over the place as it was recorded during a live show. I even step away during the recording to perform and leave all of the microphones unattended with a slew of comics. I leave around the 1:30:00 minuet mark. It's there that the interview with Adam ends unofficially. Feel free to keep listening and experience what it's like to be in the green room with a bunch of comics during a show. Notable mentions are Jason Alt, Tony Klee, John Campbell, and Bart Dangus.
