“What really makes it exciting is when you hear the story of the person playing the game,” Jonathan explains about the appeal of LMAD. “Everyone has a story. So, when you hear that story, it’s gets more exciting when the game is being played.”
Jonathan praises Brady as a “master of suspense,” noting that Wayne is “Red Bull” addicted and “always has crazy energy….a ball of energy.”
He looks forward getting back on Whose Line Is It Anyway, always saying ‘Yes’ to opportunities and leads into a ton of more laughs. Wayne and Jonathan tour around the country performing a two-man show.

Jonathan confessed that he’d love to write a sitcom and surviving in the business. He is truly funny with a natural charm.
