    As comedians we cover topics, we have in common such as booking shows, online trolling, and controversial comedy. Brad discusses his unique approach to comedy and the dark humor books he has published. He has written over 100 Amazon Best Sellers such as: "Mike Hunt Smells Like Fish,"
    "Clip Clop The Racist Horse Cop" "Race Wars" and many more.

    We discuss our approaches to dealing with trolls and negative comments on social media. Brad shares his experiences with receiving death threats and how he responds to them.

    Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of not taking things personally and using humor to navigate difficult situations. Brad Gosse started writing children's books as a joke on TikTok, but one book in particular, titled 'Why Daddy Hits Mommy,' gained a lot of attention and led him to publish more books. He found success in comedy by testing his jokes on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok, using the algorithm to gauge their popularity.

    We also discuss Brad's childhood as a class clown and how his single mom allowed him to challenge authority, which shaped his sense of humor and attention-seeking behavior.

    In this conversation, Brad and I discuss our experiences in entrepreneurship and comedy. We talk about our journeys in starting our own businesses and the importance of taking risks and learning from failures.

    They also share insights into the world of comedy, including the importance of performing in comedy clubs and the art of roasting.

    And lastly Brad Gosse talks about his current Kickstarter campaign for a compilation of his best-selling books.
