“The Long Road” now has over 1.5 million views and over 50 million views across clips and platforms. I’ve spent 14 years burning up the highways of this already great nation hoping that “The industry” would notice me, offer me a chance, give me a leg up. But all that industry has ever done is make empty promises and waste time I could have spent working on the plan. I always refused to move to NY or LA and I resisted the “viral” route too but in late 2024 I decided I could no longer deny the power and reach of an online presence. In 10 months I’ve been able to take my YouTube from 288 subscribers to 270,000. My Facebook from 4,000 to 200,000 and a similar story with other platforms.
I credit The Long Road for that growth. We made something truly special in hopes that people would see what we see and they did. I regularly get heartfelt messages from around the world from people who feel lost or hopeless saying that this special spoke to them in a way and a time that they badly needed. To me, that makes me feel like my existence matters. Like this whole hustle wasn’t in vain, that I can help other human beings feel less lost, less heavy, less hopeless. To me that is purpose and purpose (along with love and joy) is all any of us can hope for.
It would mean a lot to me if you’d watch and share The Long Road here:
My Second special “Thoughts and Prayers” premiered in June and is a biting political take down of the far right filmed in Asheville NC at the legendary Grey Eagle and produced in black and white. It’s starting to “take off” as well with some clips surpassing 2 million views. While it’s a smaller budget special, I’m as proud of it as anything else I’ve done. I designed the stage lighting and had some creative input like the idea to go for black and white. I’m thrilled with how it turned out and I hope you’ll watch it and share it as well:
I am about to film and release my THIRD comedy special in 12 months. This Sunday 8/24 at The Mishawaka Amphitheater in beautiful Poudre Canyon, I’ll be recording “Cliff Cash Live From Poudre Canyon”
The Mishawaka is a legendary outdoor venue nestled beside the river and surrounded by mountains. In its 100 year history, no comedian has ever headlined it. This Sunday that will change. It would mean the world to me if you’d folks know who live in Colorado.

I’m working on a new podcast called “Bless Your Heart” (a voice of reason with a southern accent). On the pod, I’ll interview other political content creators, activists, organizers, comedians and other people who I believe have an important story to tell. We’ll direct the political clown show that is our reality and I’ll do my best to achieve that in the gloves off way you’ve come to expect from me. You’re the first to know about this podcast but I will be announcing it publicly on the “I’ve Had It” podcast on Oct 7th STAY TUNED!
My political actions are now taking up a considerable amount of my time and my mental energy. I’m doing everything I can think of to fight this kleptocratic, white supremacist, autocracy.
I created a website to outline the ties between Trump and Russia all in one place. I’ve plastered this on billboard trucks and circled them around D.C. and West Palm Beach.
My newest website outlines all of his connections to Epstein and is a clearing house of all the info on the two of them in one place from court documents to books written on the topic
I’ve helped form a movement called Fox Takedown and we are now going after fox affiliates in 15 large cities nationwide from Tampa to Sacramento, from DC to NYC.

And don't forget about tomorrows Protest With A Purpose - Fox Take Down Aug 23rd
I’m also helping to lead and fund a group that is “on the ground” in D.C. full time 24/7 protesting at the Heritage Foundation, leading citizens into congress and applying pressure to MAGA nazis with daily trolling up close and personal.
