Charles Clark Pettitt was born and raised “where cowboy meets Cajun” and still has a deep love for the region in spite of knowing he had to escape its rampant pick up truck and Coors Light lifestyle. His Pettitt ancestors settled in Askansas seeking oil, his grandfather Arkansas (...for real...there’s a Jr and a Sr...) ate a raw onion from their Louisiana farm at every meal after they had to ghost the oil boom towns, and thanks to a high school break up that inspired an ill-fated visit to Texas A&M, Charles eventually landed in Chicago to develop his performance skills. From the perfect queso to riverboat casinos to sporting to the Bossier Strip, Charles packs Schreveport’s personality into every tale he shares. Notes: See Charles in Shark Tank: The Musical at the Annoyance Theatre before he skips town. Thanks to the Chicago Podcast Cooperative for coordinating sponsorship by Backblaze.
