This Is No Laughing Matter

Life isn’t always beautiful selfies and great food. It’s something really hard and can get you down. It’s why I try to find ways to laugh and unwind wherever and whenever I can amid the responsibilities of running the blog, being a husband, and working towards having children.

Julio & I have been invited to attend SiriusXM’s Top Comic Competition in Toronto as the competition celebrates its tenth year, and I cannot wait to kick back and laugh the night away. Come check out what the competition is all about the main reason why comedy is so important to me!
