From the Producers that brought you Nate Bargatze, Leanne Morgan, Jeff Foxworthy and John Crist. You can take the boy out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park out of the boy. Stand-up comedian Dusty Slay grew up poor on Lot 8 of a mobile home neighborhood in Opelika, Alabama, with a love for both classic country and rock and a career history peppered with jobs like waiting tables and selling pesticides. The trucker hat, long hair, mustache, flannel shirt and oversized glasses aren't affectations to cultivate a stage persona as the B-side of a 1970s Bob Seger track, it's just Dusty.
