With his organization ‘Stand For Mental Health,” David Granirer trains people working through emotional and psychiatric issues to learn the art of stand-up comedy. In his 20 years putting on more than 500 shows and 700 students, Granirer has put his counseling knowledge and business acumen to work, using a guidebook of his own creation. In our 30-minute interview, Granirer and I discuss the benefits of addressing hard to tackle topics on stage, working around taboo and how his workshops benefit not only the mental health client, but their families and communities as well.
