Need For Stand Up
Part of Rodney’s return to do stand up earlier in his life was because he was debt-ridden and living in a trashy New York hotel. When speaking with the Washington Post he explained the compulsion, “It was like a need. I had to work. I had to tell jokes. I had to write them and tell them. It was like a fix. I had the habit.”

Dangerfield’s Club
So, we mentioned his club, well since he was the regular headliner, it took no time for it to become a success. Also, Rodney Dangerfield was overwhelmingly generous in giving comedians a chance. As Carrot Top said to People, “Rodney didn’t care what kind of comedy you did. As long as you were a comic, you were a part of his fraternity.” Some of the comedians to perform at his club were Adam Sandler, Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Carrey and Roseanne Barr.
