ICYMI: Samantha Shares Laughs with Comedian Reno Collier

Reno Collier was once a P.E. teacher. He traded in his whistle for seven minutes of stage time and the rest is history.

Ok, there’s more to it than that. But Reno has made the rounds with some huge names in comedy, including Larry the Cable Guy, Jeff Foxworthy and the rest of the Blue Collar Comedy crew. He’s also provides his “Country Fried Take” to The Bob & Tom show, heard here on Z975 Monday thru Saturday from five to nine a.m.

Reno lives just down the road in Murfreesboro these days and is bringing his comedy to Oak Grove on Saturday, November 12th at the Fort Campbell American Legion Post 233. 

On no sleep and a house full of people including kids, Reno joined me on the phone Halloween morning for a chat. You can check it out below.

Tickets for his show this Saturday are available on Reno’s website.
