We had the good fortune of connecting with Jonathan Monroe and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jonathan, what do you want your legacy to be?
I want my Legacy to be built on never giving up because even after all the loses I took God always gave me the strength to keep pushing forward…. What do I want people to remember about me? I want them to remember that they didn’t believe in me at first but when my time came that I still had love for those who didn’t have any for me….

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
My comedy brand will become a production one day where I will produce tv shows, sitcoms, movies and my comedy specials. But the road wasn’t ever easy for me because I didn’t even believe in myself at first but everything changed for me when I had my first comedy show and I made 50 plus people laugh at my pain and struggles with life

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If your hanging out with me we would definitely go to Dave and busters to play games and probably end night standing on the country park deck looking over the city at night where it low-key looks like Vegas at night when the city is lit up

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My daughter Allisaya Person she turned my life around completely when my life was really dark and I didn’t have a purpose to live again but God saw differently and I became a God father and then when my babygirl turned 12 she wanted me to be her full time father and thats when my life changed for the better
