His father, a preacher who once played guitar with the [[Everly Brothers]], worked at The King's Academy. Whitney worked at [[Wendy's]] until 1985, when he began doing stand-up comedy with other West Palm Beach locals. At the encouragement of friends and coworkers, he continued his standup work during amateur nights at the Comedy Club in [[Blue Springs, Missouri]]. In 1991, he began doing [[radio comedy]], in which he would call into stations as fictional characters.

Criticism

Whitney's act has been criticized for having racist and homophobic elements.

In a 2005 Rolling Stone interview, fellow comedian David Cross harshly criticized Whitney's act.[1] "It's a lot of anti-gay, racist humor — which people like in America — all couched in 'I'm telling it like it is.' He's in the right place at the right time for that gee-shucks, proud-to-be-a-redneck, I'm-just-a-straight-shooter-multimillionaire-in-cutoff-flannel-selling-ring-tones act. That's where we are as a nation now. We're in a state of vague American values and anti-intellectual pride." Cross used his television show, Freak Show, to criticize Larry through an unsubtle character reference, Danny the Plumber Guy.

Whitney responded to common criticisms of him as racist or insensitive by saying that most people are fine with his act, stating "the only people who are uptight at my shows are politically correct white people." He continued his defense in his book, GIT-R-DONE, devoting a chapter to the "P. C. Left." Cross responded with an open letter on his website expanding his criticism and defending his remarks.[2][3]

Personal life

The real Dan Whitney is somewhat of an enigma. The few biographies of him describe only the fictional life of Larry the Cable Guy, as he rarely speaks out of character when in public. Residents of Pawnee County confirm the existence of his father and one brother.

In a 60 Minutes report, correspondent Bob Simon reveals Whitney's "happy-go-lucky" lifestyle: "Unlike many comedians the 60 Minutes team has met, Larry is not angry, he's not depressed, he's not paranoid. He's a hard-working, supremely confident, happy-go-lucky funnyman."[4]

He is a dedicated supporter of the Nebraska Cornhuskers football team. He frequently attends Nebraska football games in his luxury box located in the north end zone of Memorial Stadium, Lincoln. A fan favorite, Whitney frequently signs autographs and talks with fans after games.

Whitney is married to a former radio personality from KOMP in Las Vegas, Nevada. Dan and his wife, Cara, have two children together: Wyatt and Reagan. The couple's first daughter, Reagan, was born October 29, 2007.

Southern accent

Whitney's Southern accent is worn as an affectation. Having grown up in Nebraska before moving to West Palm Beach in South Florida when he was 13, Whitney's natural inflection is much more Midwest than Deep South. He says in interviews and in his autobiographical book GIT-R-DONE that he willingly "turns on" the accent.[5] See this YouTube link for an early comedy routine performance without his accent. Lives in Longwood FL

Catchphrases

Larry the Cable Guy uses catchphrase humor, including "Git-R-Done", as well as "Lord, I apologize for that right there, and please be with the starvin' pygmies down there in New Guinea, A-men" and/or "I don't care who you are, that's funny right there!" after particularly egregious jokes. He appears in Nutrisystem commercials with Dan Marino and Marino said the catchprase "Git-R-Done" and was shown dressed in Larry's trademark vest and jeans and camo hat.


Radio career
