Scott walks us through his origins in comedy, the leap into business ownership, and what it really takes to build and sustain your own comedy club. We dig into stand-up as a craft, the realities of running venues, and how betting on yourself changes the way you approach success and failure. This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a conversation about creating opportunities instead of chasing them, learning the business side of creativity, and why longevity often comes from building your own lane.
