Dave Stone is disarmingly hilarious. The Atlanta-based comic who looks like a trucker and thinks like a scholar is officially about to blow up; though his act includes several food-related jokes, I meant “blow up” professionally, not physically. Performing regularly from Georgia and anywhere else in between both coasts, Stone is garnering a lot of national attention. He also lends his comedic talents to the Beards of Comedy - a quartet made up of 75% Georgians, and 100% facial hair, that is growing a strong cult-following.
