Prison Drug Dealer to Comedian: Andrew Hamilton's Incredible Story
Description
Andrew Hamilton spent 15 years as a drug dealer before a stint in prison changed everything. He came out the other side and did the unthinkable: turned it into comedy gold. From viral fame on Yeah Mad to founding member of The OG Crew, Andrew's built a massive following (300K+ and counting) by being brutally, hilariously honest about his past - prison, drugs, and everything in between. He's toured sold-out solo shows across Australia and NZ, published his memoir The Profound Benefits of a Stint in Prison, and somehow made incarceration one of the funniest topics in Aussie comedy. This week, he sits down to talk about the road from kingpin to comedian - and everything he's learned along the way.
