I am a storyteller and stand-up comic living in the Gold Coast. I have performed all throughout the city (Second City, Zanie’s Rosemont, The Laugh Factory) as well as a couple of comedy festivals—all pre-COVID.
I recently read your article titled, “Chicago’s singles scene: It’s tough out there.” I laughed at Jon’s sentence where he questioned why he, a 64-year-old married man, was asked to write the article. However, Jon is not wrong; it is tough out there!
I am 38, single and have “dated” during the pandemic. I have a plethora of horrible, funny and sweet dating stories. I use the horrible and funny stories in my stand-up quite often.
