In this debut episode of Who Gave Jeff Allen a Podcast?, Jeff Allen and co-host Carollynn Xavier kick things off with comedian, actor, and world-class juggler Ron Pearson. From street performing at age 10 to taking fourth in the world as a juggler, Ron shares his journey from the streets of Seattle to Hollywood's biggest stages.

Jeff, Carollynn, and Ron swap stories about stand-up comedy, the evolution of clean humor, the challenges of working in clubs versus churches, and even how juggling, ADHD, and stock trading somehow all connect. 

🎙️ Topics Covered:
âś… The reality of working in comedy for decades
âś… Why clean comedy is harder (but worth it)
âś… Hecklers, club nightmares, and crazy audience interactions
âś… The financial ups and downs of entertainment careers
âś… Finding your "why" in comedy and life

This episode is full of laughs, wisdom, and a few ridiculous tangents—exactly what you’d expect from a podcast that no one asked for, but everyone needs.
