At The NAACP Image Awards with a young Kenan Thompson and Nick Cannon. Guess who stood out?

It was surreal hangin’ with Cheech & Chong. At age 15 I could recite every word of Big Bambu & Los Cochinos

An Evening with the hilarious Dana Gould

Dana Gould began his professional comedy career at the age of seventeen. Between Comedy Central, HBO and Showtime, Dana has six solo stand-up comedy specials to his credit. He has appeared on THE LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN, JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE, CONAN, and MARON. As an actor, Dana has had memorable turns on SEINFELD, PARKS AND REC, is one of the few actors to play his live- action self on FAMILY GUY. Dana was a writer/performer on the original BEN STILLER SHOW and maintains an equally active career as a writer. Dana then joined the staff of THE SIMPSONS, where he was a Co-Executive Producer and performed several voices for the show. He was also a producer on NBC's PARKS AND REC. In addition, Dana recently developed a hour-long series based on the comic book series THE OCTOBER FACTION with that series’ creator, Steve Niles, as well as well as adapting Rod Serling’s early, original, draft of the screenplay for PLANET OF THE APES as a graphic novel for Boom! Comics. Despite all this, stand-up remains a focal point of Dana’s career, and he continues to perform regularly across the country. His monthly podcast, THE DANA GOULD HOUR, frequently resides in iTunes' top ten comedy downloads. In 2017, Dana released MR. FUNNY MAN on Kill Rock Stars, a predominantly indie music label. MR. FUNNY MAN, Dana’s first comedy album since 2015’s I KNOW ITS WRONG, debuted on iTunes comedy chart at #1.

48 hours after the tragic fire at The Blue Loon, the nomadic T.J. Miller show tore up the Theater in Pioneer Park.

Whoever said “don’t meet you heroes” never met the legendary Rich Little. Still funny and so gracious.

I got to hang out with and open for Howie Mande many years ago in Fairbanks.

Jerry, Dana, Skyler, The Best Time! Thanks for the Fairbanks love! - Maria Bamford

Great night of comedy with The Sklar Brothers. So fun to watch them crush both sold out shows on their first time to Fairbanks,

Jamie Kennedy said that may have been the craziest gig he's ever done. And that's saying something.

Got to open for Jim Gaffigan in front of 4,100 people at the Alaska State Fair. The payoff.

Great time with Brian Posehn & Glenner closing out the 2015 Fairbanks Funny Festival.
