Even before appearing on Last Comic Standing, Alonzo Bodden knew there was nothing, absolutely nothing, that would ever make him give up comedy. "That's the drug," he says, "when they laugh, it's like I'm a jazz musician and they hear it and they get it. It's power to take the crowd wherever I want them to go. I love it when they laugh, especially when they relate through laughter. It's a beautiful thing. It also means I'm going to get paid, which is nice." Alonzo describes his material as cynically good natured in an angry suburban Negro kind of way. While he strongly believes that all young comics should study Bill Cosby, he freely admits that his mom is the funniest person he knows. When his family and friends attend his shows he loves and appreciates it. One of the great things about Alonzo's career is that he can make you laugh and fix your Learjet. One day, he hopes to have his own Learjet.
