Hello and welcome to episode 282 of my podcast, Who's Paying Attention?

This is Alonzo Bowden, and I appreciate you listening.

And I got to tell you, right now, I truly feel like a late night quiet storm DJ.

Everyone's always told me I have one of those voices.

Well, I got to tell you, it's a, it's a little after midnight in L.A.

The only sound outside are the coyotes and occasional owl. And here I am talking into the

mic recording. So who knows, maybe I've found my destiny. Now, if you're listening to the

podcast, I appreciate it. and you've obviously found me.

Recently, through all things, comedy, we switched from SoundCloud to Art 19, so some people

are saying they're having a hard time finding my podcast.

Still on Apple, still on Apple, and also on my YouTube channel. So you can just subscribe there to

Alonzo Bowden's YouTube channel. And I'm here again. If you're listening, obviously you found it.

As always, I ask you to tell a friend. Thursday, I did something I haven't done in four months. I did live comedy in front of an audience.

It was just absolutely an amazing feeling. Let me tell you people something that when we say

thank you for coming out, when I say, I appreciate you coming to the show, you might think I'm just talking,

but I'm telling you there is nothing like doing comedy in front of a live crowd. That's how it's

meant to be done. I was at the La Jolla comedy store, Mal Hall, who's open for me numerous times.

I was doing a guest spot on his show.

There were about 35 people there, social distance within the club. We had to wear masks when we

were off stage, all of that. That's okay. That's just how it's done. But to be in front of

those 35 people and to feel that energy and to create was absolutely amazing.

So I look forward to doing that again.
