God, Grit, and the Comedy Club: A Conversation with Danielle Alfano

Send us a text

This week on Who Gave Jeff Allen a Podcast?, Jeff and Carollynn sit down with Danielle Alfano, owner of The Comedy Catch, a popular comedy club in Chattanooga, TN, and a woman who knows exactly what it means to run toward chaos with faith in hand.

Danielle shares what it’s like to operate in a fast-paced, unpredictable business where she balances late nights, logistics, and a whole lot of personalities—all while holding onto her faith, sanity, and sense of humor.

From the wild world of booking comics to the harder moments of disappointment and redirection, this conversation is a candid look at faith behind the curtain.

🎭 In This Episode:

• What it’s really like running a comedy club as a woman of faith
• Learning to listen when God says “no”—even when the plan looked perfect
• How to lead with both strength and vulnerability
• Why obedience is sometimes quiet and behind the scenes

If you’ve ever wrestled with calling, burnout, or trusting God in the waiting—this episode is full of insight and encouragement from someone who’s walking it out daily.
