A bullied overweight kid from Brooklyn without any money or connections built a comedy club empire in New York City, all starting from a date daring him to get on a comedy stage. Hear about the struggles and the joys, and all the monkey business in between as the comedian who bombed, but businessman who flourished Al Martin reveals how you can succeed in business, despite the odds being stacked against you. Most of the well known comedy clubs in NYC are now gone, but Al has not only survived after 30 years, but thrived as his name is synonymous with comedy in NYC. He currently owns Broadway Comedy Club and Greenwich Village Comedy Club. Oh....and listen to the infamous Sarah Silverman incident and how that played out, as well as some of the famous comedy stars that played his clubs when they were unknowns.
