Welcome to the world of Jon D. - stand-up comedian, podcast producer, and certified talker-about-all-the-things.
From his cozy (and slightly chaotic) basement studio, Jon D. hosts a comedy podcast where he riffs on stand-up comedy life, breaking news, NFL and NHL updates, sci-fi fandom, and weird but true historical facts. As a recovering alcoholic, Jon brings occasional raw, real-life reflections between the punchlines.
With guest comedians, actors, and interesting people from all walks of life, every episode blends humor, insight, and a healthy dose of sublime wit. Whether it’s a solo riff or Jon tricked someone into a conversation, this podcast brings laughs, commentary, and surprising moments of clarity.
It’s where comedy meets culture - and culture gets roasted just right.
Shoes optional. Sarcasm required.
