You've heard it before: "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" or "keep your opinions to yourself". For most of my life so far, I've followed those models. But I think it's time to shake things up a bit. I'm Jared, a small town guy with big city aspirations who, for the most part, has kept quiet about my opinions of this world and the society we live in. And what better way to release it than with comic relief. In this show, I speak off the dome with spontaneous topics, personal stories and an eagerness to learn more about things outside of my comfort zone, finally releasing my alter ego (the "closed thoughts") known simply as Denizen.
