Chad Daniels’ First Time

We remind each other that a lot of cool things happen in comedy if you just stop and take it in for a second. Chad and I talk about how meaningful it is when a headliner brings you around as their opener, we share a few (hilarious) horror stories from the road and the late, great Mitch Hedberg.Pat House is a nationally-touring comedian based out of Philadelphia.
