From Prison Cell to Comedy, Crisis to Change, with Andrew Hamilton

From Prison Cell to Comedy, Crisis to Change, with Andrew Hamilton

One of the first jokes that Andrew Hamilton came up with was about the night his house was raided. Later, while making himself laugh at his own reviews of the food he was being served in prison, he thought maybe he should finally actually try following his dream of stand up comedy. So far it's turned out a whole better than dealing drugs.

In this wide-ranging chat with Osher, Andrew shares the many things he experienced in prison, and provides a profound example of making a dramatic change in your life's direction.
