What do you get when a kid jumps on the bed, busts an artery, and ends up with four stitches? For comedian and writer Austin Hall, it was just the beginning of a life filled with unexpected turns and punchlines.
In this episode of Comedy Is The Cure, host Taquita Love reconnects with her friend and fellow comedian Austin Hall.
They met in David A. Arnold’s “Art of Stand-Up” class and have been sharing laughs ever since. Austin shares his journey from a career in finance to pursuing comedy full-time.
He moved to Los Angeles, lived with his 80-year-old uncle, and immersed himself in the stand-up scene.
In 2022, Austin released his debut comedy album, American Native, featuring 18 tracks that showcase his unique perspective on culture, identity, and everyday life.
