Today on Lawhead's Court is a terrific young comedian & someone I'm proud to call a good comedy friend. Zoltan Kaszas started in and still remains a San Diego comedian and is regularly headlining clubs, colleges and other diverse stages all over the country & recently tells us about headlining my home club Hilarites. He talks to me about his success through Dry Bar comedy, his appreciation for the audiences & fans that came from it and his creative ways of touring to seek them out live.  We talk about his mom, his new boxing career, our cats, living below your means & even get to sports. Hungarian born and San Diego raised Zoltan is one funny "your dad's dick" (which means MF'er in Hungarian). Check out the episode & enjoy.
