We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Don Dario. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Don below.
Alright, Don thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you talk to us about how you’ve thought about whether to sign with an agent or manager?
My team or “agent” that helps me secure opportunities is Allstars United LLC. Allstars United LLC is an agency for creatives by creatives and an organization of amazing entrepreneurs that form like Voltron when any project is required.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
I started comedy in Phoenix, Arizona and I have performed on almost every club stage in the metropolitan area. Since then, we’ve started The DUM Podcast on YouTube which is the passion project that has allowed me to work on writing comedy. The podcast provides insight to stand up, as many guests share gems of knowledge on what most comics go through while coming up in the game. Find us on Patreon for secret episodes and my roast.
Are there any resources you wish you knew about earlier in your creative journey?
I wish I knew about comedy classes before I started because it would have made the process a lot easier. I advise starting comics to visit comedyschools.com and tell Tony The DUM Podcast sent you.
Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?
I want to develop space for creative minds to promote their art and at the same time set an example for my children by teaching them that helping yourself can start by helping others.
