Ep. 114: Stretch Yourself (Ft. Jared Chandler)

My guest is Jared Chandler, he is a stand-up comedian, writer, & photographer from Greeley, Colorado. He hosts a weekly showcase stand-up show: ‘Stella’s Underground Comedy’ in Greeley every Thursday at 9 pm, where he can be found warming up crowds — opening each show before capturing his fellow comics on the stage with his camera. 
His website is JaredChandlerComedy.com & follow him on Instagram @_JaredChandler for upcoming show dates! You’ll want to see him before he blows up, that way you can brag to your friends about being an early-adopter. 
Jared is smart, thoughtful, kind, funny, but man this guy clearly LOVES stand-up! I have no doubt after talking to him that the formula of his ‘work-ethic’ + ‘love’ + ‘time’ will inevitably lead him to a successful and happy life — be it in stand-up or wherever his mind/heart/soul may take him — in the casino of life, my money is bet squarely on Jared.
He tells me about his first mics at the Jaeger in Greeley, his diligent process of building an act, and how hosting his weekly mic has brought tremendous growth into both his stand-up and his photography of fellow comics on stage. We get to know one another as we share life stories and I incessantly prod him with questions ranging from his path through stand-up, what life was like growing up in Greeley, and how he finds meaning and purpose in life. 
 
I am grateful for Jared’s generosity in sharing with me his time & perspective.
Be sure to see him at Stella’s in Greeley each Thursday!!
