Stand-up comedian Slade Ham has what appears to be quite possibly the coolest career of all time: he makes people laugh for a living. Scratch that. He makes people laugh for a living while drinking Irish whiskey sent to him for free by his fans. The result is high proof comedy so toxic it would send its listeners to rehab were it not so damned funny. And while it may look like he is leaning back and just taking it easy with the dudes at The Whiskey Brothers, what Slade is actually doing as producer is sheer genius. He is building on a career that has taken him to perform in 22 countries on four continents with calculated persistence–persistence in the face of odds that would have made a lesser man sink permanently into his bender-stained couch cushions with nary a scantily clad sorority nurse-in-training to care for him. Slade Ham is a dragon slaying Jedi ninja who happens to also have a grape slushee heart and a wickedly smart sense of humor. I also have it on good authority that he likes Prince. A lot.
