We dive DEEP into it both. I also name a few random NYC Subway stops and see if DiResta has any stories for us. No Surprise....he does. Great episode with lots of laughs! John DiResta is an American former New York Transit police officer turned comedian, actor, and woodworker. He has so many great stories and keeps the conversation moving along like hobo at the end of the line on the subway. He's got a heart of gold and you would love to party with this guy.

New York-based comic Steve Marshall plays all the big clubs across the country. He's been featured on national television platforms such as CBS News and CNBC, plus Hot Off the Grill With Bobby Flay and NBC's Dare to Dream. Riffing relentlessly on topics such as his negative Jewish family and why one should never make fun of Chinese people who work in a Chinese restaurant, Marshall's no-holds-barred approach will have you laughing and gasping in equal doses."THE MARSHALL PLAN - Bad behavior makes for good comedy."That's the way the Florida New Times described Steve's comedy."Marshall's style relies on a sharp mind and a complete inability to properly behave himself. Nothing too controversial, just a little good-old-fashioned honesty."RATED H FOR HONESTY.Steve doesn't behave, he tells the truth.After graduating with a degree in accounting Steve turned down a job with Price Waterhouse to follow his dream and become a comedian. By day he taught accounting, business law , math and psychology at a vocational business school. He told jokes and made accounting fun. His misbehaving got him promoted to Dean.By night he went to open mics and learned to make people laugh.One day he was picking up his dry cleaning and teasing the woman behind the counter, she smiled and said "behave" and Steve found his comedy voice.Steve takes the stage announcing proudly "I'm not here to behave" and proceeds to speak honestly about sex, ethnicity, love, and the lack of respect for women,gays, minorities and even men. That's right, men get disrespected too!The results have been amazing.Steve has appeared on network and cable tv. NBC,CBS, the Food Network have all featured Steve being funny.Steve has been seen cooking and cracking jokes with Bobby flay on Hot Off the Grill and stealing the date on Blind Date. That's right. We told you Steve doesn't behave for laughs.His high energy and broad smile made him a perfect choice to warm up tv audiences for ABC's The View.A strong writer Steve has written monologue jokes for the Late Show With David Letterman and is the head writer for a new dvd coming out called Extreme Comedy.Steve is a recognized film director. He wrote and directed Academy Award Consideree and Long Island Film Festival Winner "Get the Script to Woody Allen". Steve is currently directing "Driving Me Crazy" starring academy award winner Mickey Rooney, and Renee Taylor , Josepy Bologna, and Dick Cavett.Steve is one of the top comedy and acting coaches in America. He has coached Lisa Lampanelli, Lisa Landry, Karith Foster, John Diresta and Tommy Savitt.Recently Steve performed his totally clean comedy act at the Borgata Hotel in Atlantic City and the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas. He got a standing ovation at the Funnybone in West Virginia performing his Double R rated act .Steve also performs a one man show in theaters called "Nobody Told Me". Time Out NY reviewed Steve's show and called it "genuinely funny."Genuine, passionate, honest! This high energy comedian,actor,writer,director, will make you laugh about real life with the fun of a party where no one behaves. hence Don't Behave is my philosophy for finding one's true self. Steve discovered if I broke patterns and paradigms I behaved more naturally.Simply walking to a familiar place in a different route opened my subconscious to spontaneity. The next step or evolvement is transcending.Knowledge becomes the diving board to bounce on and inspire one to dive.On stage I am diving into the unknown, using different approaches as a diving board to propel me.The same in my personal life.The personal becomes the diving board for my stage performance and the stage performance becomes the diving board for my personal life. Therefore on or off the stage I Am Me.

Who is John DiResta? John DiResta is the real deal. He was raised on the rough and tumble streets of Long Island, where all he did was drink beer, listen to heavy metal and make fun of people. If you got mocked by John DiResta then you were in with the in crowd. After dropping out of two colleges (New Paltz and Nassau Community) John took the New York City Police Exam. On July 15th, 1986 John was sworn into the worst police department in the history of the world, the New York City Transit Police. For the next 12 years John stood in a puddle of hot human piss in the Coney Island Stillwell Station, alone, with no partner, with a radio that might work if he was lucky. The motto of the Transit Police was 'you ride, we hide.' John had nine arrests in twelve years. His gun was so rusted shut that he would have had to throw it at a perp to take him down. The only thing that made John's job interesting was his homeless friends, with no one else to talk to John became buddies with hundreds of bums in the New York City Subway. In 1992 John started his comedy career in the bowels of the New York comedy circuit. Five years later his one man show, BEAT: A Subway Cop's Comedy, open to raved reviews. The New York Times called him "UPROARIOUS!" John quickly signed a huge development deal with ABC/Disney. John quit the police department and moved his wife and three kids to the west coast. In the fall of 1998 John's sitcom, 'DiResta', launched on the UPN Network. John then went on to secure very big rolls in the movies Miss Congeniality and 15 Minutes with Robert De Niro. During that period John made two very memorable appearences on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and the Howard Stern Show. In the spring of 2004 John's show, Trash to Cash, premiered on the FX Network. John then went on to star in How To Loose a Guy in Ten Days and Miss Congeniality Two. In the fall of 2007 John began work on his next two TV adventures: American Body Shop was on Comedy Central for one year and Hammered lasted two seasons on HGTV/DIY Networks. John currently lives on both coasts, spending his time in both the San Fernando Valley and in New York City. He travels the world as a killer live stand up and can be seen coming to a town near you. When not on the road John can be found in his North Hollywood Hills shop fabricating his unique rustic furniture and artwork. John DiResta has been around the block, twice. John DiResta is a true comedic mixed martrial artist of the highest order; on TV, on film or live on stage, John gets it done. John DiResta is the funniest human being that ever lived.
