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

Hi David, is your business focused on helping the community? If so, how?
In today’s world, we need to have a good scene of humor, and this is why I created Best of Luck Homegrown Comedies, my website where you can get my books, short films, and merchandise that will take the individual on a journey of laughter.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I grew up as an Air Force Brat, during the late 60’s and 70’s. I was fascinated by the TV show. “Rowan & Matin’s Laugh-In”. As a young child, I was amazed at how these talented people could make you laugh during the world’s rough times, such as the Vietnam War. I remember in the 1st grade, the teacher asked what everyone in the class wanted to be when they grew up, and most of the students wanted to be policemen, teachers, doctors, and astronauts – and my answer was, “I want to be a cast member of Laugh-In. At that very moment, my goal in life was to bring laughter into the universe.

My true calling in life is to spread humor to the world through my books and films. The two main lessons I’ve learned during my 58 years on this earth are:

1. Don’t give up your day; love what you do.
2. Embrace rejection and remember that no one can take away your creativity.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I live in Lafayette, Louisiana, “Cajun Country” – so I’d take my best friend to all the local restaurants, festivals, and museums. I would also show my friend all the locations in Louisiana where my films were shot and the places written in my books.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My family and friends deserve much credit for my books and films. Because of these beautiful and funny people, I can create.
