Allow me the pleasure of introducing the one, the only, the man, the myth, the Hollywood legend and my personal friend Dante Rusciolelli! Dante has been a comedian for over 37 years and has worked with all the best such as Richard Pryor. He has appeared on over 40 TV shows including but not limited to: BET's ComicView, NBC's Last Comic Standing, and his own Sitcom. Dante was also a writer for Joan Rivers on the show Fashion Police.

Dante is also a talent manager who owns Golden Artists Entertainment in Los Angeles. Visit www.goldenartistsentertainment.com to see some of the biggest actors, comedians, and influencers that Dante represents.
Dante has also been struck by copious amounts of trauma and grief. Losing his entire family within the last 12 years, witnessing a stabbing in 11th grade, witnessing his friend being shot due to a gang initiation. That is but just some of the incredible yet tragic stories he has shared with me and all of us in this episode. Dante is working on publishing a memoir about his life, and hopes it will be ready soon. Follow Dante on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter for updates on upcoming comedy tours, webinars, productions and his memoir in progress.
"They only taught two words, but those two words were worth every dollar. So what, so what, so what. We are all going to be gone soon; enjoy it while you're here and be good to those that are with you, and if they go, they're going to know you loved them." - Dante
"And its like, no, you can't even use all those bananas!" - Dante
"You should appreciate you, everyone needs to realize their own value."- Dante
"Love, Health, Happiness, Safety, and Freedom I believe are the keys to life." - Dante
"It actually inspired me to kind of want to get together with other men and woman or whatever, in maybe some sort of support group. Just talk, because it did help, it helped talking to you." - Dante
