Early life

He later enrolled at San Francisco State University as a Creative Writing major.[1][2]

Stout first performed stand-up on his seventeenth birthday at a high school talent show.[1] He continued to perform, although only a handful of times, at various poetry open-mics while attending the College of Santa Fe. In June 2001 he moved to San Francisco, California[1] where the comedy scene allowed him more frequent stage time. He ingrained himself there for the next few years, performing over three hundred shows each year.
