Dale shines his conversational spotlight on a little-known role within the comedy community, that of a comedy booker. Dale welcomes the exceptionally talented Luisa Diez to the program to explore what a booker does and how one goes from being trained as an artist and anthropologist to being responsible for organizing some of the best nights of stand up in the city. Luisa has long possessed a great fondness for stand up comedy, something she discovered as a young person growing up in Miami, where she would stay up to watch late night television just to catch stand up clips and see old comedy specials. Luisa and Dale discuss her fascinating personal journey while touching on the profound weirdness of Florida, comparing artists and comedians, finding hidden rooms of the Guggenheim, and what it really takes to get into those big comedy festivals. Lots of great insights in this comedy-centric episode.
