Summary: <p>Steve Cooper talks with comedy producer/hypnotist Andy Scarpati. Andy began performing as a stand-up comedian in 1978 and by 1980 he left the teaching profession for a career as a comedy producer and performer.

He has acted in over a dozen commercials and in 1994 landed a part on the TV Show 'America’s Most Wanted' playing a police officer. In 1994, while studying acting, he enrolled in a self-hypnosis class. Always being curious about hypnosis, he discovered that Self-Hypnosis was a valuable tool for self-improvement. Then, through a series of unexpected events he decided to shift his focus to helping people.

He still has 3 comedy clubs and privately has hypnosis patients and also does live shows for the public.</p><br> <p><img src="//coopertalk.podbean.com/mf/web/5fkpcs/scarp.jpeg" alt="scarp.jpeg" width="196" height="257"></p><br> <p> </p>
