Can humor and recovery reshape your entire life? Whether you're a comedy enthusiast or curious about the metaverse, this episode offers a compelling blend of personal narrative and innovative vision. Join us for an engaging chat with Aaron Sorrells, the Unemployed Alcoholic, as he uncovers the transformative power of clean comedy in both the real and virtual worlds. From his turbulent college days and struggles with alcoholism to his breakthrough in the world of virtual reality comedy, Aaron's story is a testament to resilience and reinvention. You'll get an in-depth look at his journey from the stages of traditional comedy clubs to the innovative creation of the Soapstone Comedy Club in Meta Horizon Worlds.
Discover how the global pandemic became a catalyst for Aaron's dive into the metaverse, leading to the development of a unique VR comedy venue that has become a beacon for both seasoned and emerging comedians. We break down the intricacies of Meta Horizon Worlds, and the Soapstone's standout features like omnipresent celebrity performances, daily open mics, and recorded video specials. Aaron also shares the challenges and triumphs of bringing a dream to virtual reality, from collaborating with world builders to managing a vibrant and dynamic online community.
But it's not just about the laughs. Aaron opens up about his personal battles, how sobriety steered him towards a fulfilling path, and the creation of Clean Comedy Time—a platform that challenges comedians to be funny without being hurtful. As Aaron reveals the meticulous process behind building the Soapstone Comedy Club, you'll gain insights into how he's merging technology and humor to create an accessible and engaging environment for comedy lovers everywhere.
