On the “City Lights” series “Speaking of Comedy,” Atlanta’s funniest locals share insights on the perks and perils of their profession. This edition features Atlanta-based comedian Dan Weeks. “I’ve been doing comedy since the 3rd Fast and the Furious movie. I think that’s Tokyo Drift [2006],” Weeks said.
After getting out of college and getting a “real job,” Weeks thought, “Man, there’s got to be more to life than this ‘cause this is very boring.” He’d always had an interest in comedy as he was always “the funny one.” He saw the documentary “Jerry Seinfeld: Comedian” and thought, “Maybe this is the time to try that!” He went down to the Punchline to an open mic, and the rest is history.
