II'd like to introduce you to my friend, Marquita Seifried. She's a newcomer to the comedy scene but has practiced ventriloquism since childhood. After ordering a mail-order kit to learn ventriloquism, she's now retired from teaching and is focused on bringing joy and laughter into her life by making people laugh with her ventriloquist friends.

This week I sit down with my old friend Rick Izquieta. A stand-up comedian who works everywhere from cruise ships to Hollywood we talk about how he started in comedy and how his father owned two mansions and lost it all almost overnight. He went on the run and Rick hasn't seen his father in almost 23 years please join me.

My first episode I couldn't think of a nice person than miss Anita Milline to be my first interview. This young lady has always been in my corner. Also, my first phone call when putting together a comedy show. please enjoy.

The reason I started this crazy podcast was to talk to people battling life. I feel like we are missing compassion in our conversation. We are to busy talk at one another and not to one another. But what else would you expect from a podcast called Bubba's Comedy.
