Blog name: Dobie Maxwell's 'Dented Can' Diary Location: Born in Milwaukee, Based in Chicago, On the Road About me: My name is Dobie Maxwell and I am a comedian, columnist, comedy instructor, radio host, speaker and sweepstakes finalist. I am also a 'dented can'. I'm still trying to figure out life back from childhood until now. It's insane, unfair but never boring and I know there are others who feel the same way I do. I am not for everyone and I know that but those who can relate will find that I represent their feelings and opinions too. I fight for the struggler.
