And then Joeho, I'll throw it 0:03:59.280 --> 0:03:59.920 to you and then I'll. 0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:05.360 Go, Okay. So I think it's actually great that we're 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:12.160 talking about Tisha in the seriousness of how important she 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.040 is because the two people I would name, one's Martin 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:23.359 Lawrence Martin, you know, from the stage, like from stand 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:28.240 up on the stage, transitioning into network television. I think 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:34.200 he's just truly truly iconic on both levels and created 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:39.159 things that have just transitioned from one generation to the 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:42.240 next generation. And but the thing about Martin is, as 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:46.560 a thirty six year old, like, it's just that everything 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:53.400 about it encapsulates like my childhood at lessons for the style, 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:57.760 the colors, the the way that we were as black 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:04.200 people freer to just communicate as us on network TV 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.600 was really gorgeous. But my favorite, favorite, favorite, favorite thing 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:11.400 about that sitcom, especially when you compare it to a 0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:16.200 lot of other sitcoms led by stand up comics, Martin, 0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:25.880 every single performer stood out lead, supporting, recurring. Every single 0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:30.000 character on that show was a standout. Tisha Campbell to 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:34.880 she and everyone was doing the work, yeah, to make 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:37.960 that thing iconic and memorable for the ages. And the 0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:42.080 other person I would say is Evettlee Bowser. Yes, Living 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:49.200 Single another iconic show that really gave you a lot 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:54.279 of other shows like it, you know, namely a show 0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:59.120 called Friends, which then you know itself, I guess inspired 0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:02.480 to hold a bunch of other mediocre, mediocre white shows, 0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:07.760 but Living Single is another one. Again, from the communications 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:11.880 of the style to the performances of every character, it 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:15.760 is just such a powerful thing that to this day, 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:18.960 both of those shows I still watch, I still crack 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:25.440 and I'm still incredibly impressed by the work that everybody 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:28.760 did on those shows, performing, writing, and. 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:32.039 What I love about you sharing about Living Singles. So 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:34.840 I never knew, actually until like maybe a couple of 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:39.360 like maybe I would say months ago that I guess, uh, 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:42.360 the Max Max's character was never supposed to be on 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:45.160 the show, Like that was a whole Yeah, never supposed to. 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:49.040 They didn't want Max on the show. And Lawyer, Yeah, 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.560 and that's the reason why they have her quote unquote 0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:54.760 being the neighbor across the street is because they were 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:57.400 trying to basically write her out of the show, and 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.920 I actually fought for it and said, if you don't 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.680 have Max, you don't have a show. So shout out 0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:06.640 to both you know, I go ahead, go ahead. 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:11.000 It was brilliant that she lived across the street but 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:14.240 was still a central part of Yeah. Yeah usually just 0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:15.880 find some way for her to live in the building 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:19.240 to or live upstairs, and it was iconic that she 0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:24.240 was as like accomplished and strong and outspoken that she was, 0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:25.600 but she was also the friend that was going to 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:27.560 leave her house and always be in your house. Again. 0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:31.040 Yeah, we all have all have that person person. 0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:33.320 I always say, if I live closer to Joho, I 0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:36.120 would always be at her house eating that I would 0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:38.880 be mad. Yeah, I would be Max if I literally 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:41.760 lived near you, vice versa, if you live closer than me, 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:46.120 you would have When. 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:47.640 They came in with some girl streets and Max Wicks, 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:49.480 she just bust in the house and started went through. 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:51.640 She got the oreoles and was like, y'all didn't get 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:58.800 the double stuck, Like you didn't what you don't even even. 0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:01.080 I live, I live, What about you?

Yeah, 0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:59.720 everyone's reaction was a little different, Yeah, but Cadizha just was. 0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:05.320 Like you can see them wanting to break, yes, all 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:05.680 of them. 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:06.520 Yeah. 0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:10.120 Yeah, Oh god, what a moment. I would like, I 0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:12.120 really genuinely wish we could go back to that time 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.760 in history of like TV and film because okay, we 0:16:14.800 --> 0:16:15.840 can studying. 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:19.160 Okay, Okay, So I feel like y'all can go on 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:21.320 with this, and I really really want that for both y'all, 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.360 but we do have to take a quick break. So 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:27.000 while y'all throw tomatoes at John for their last choices, 0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:29.960 we will take one one Little Quickie will be back 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:33.880 with more with the pog God themselves Kid Fury more than. 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:34.240 A sec. 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:42.520 All right, y'all. So for today's category is we are 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:46.520 sitting down with the pod God and we are talking about, uh, 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:48.960 this idea of how do we take what's going on 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:51.320 in the world and utilize that as content? And so 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:53.720 in this segment that we're calling laugh at My Pain, 0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:56.320 we want to talk about Kid Fury, and we want 0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:58.680 to talk about their comedy and even talking about the 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.440 tour that they have coming up. So before we get 0:17:01.480 --> 0:17:03.120 into the tour and before we dive in, and we 0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:05.479 really started talking about kind of what inspired you to 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:07.960 go on this this what I'm calling, well, or at 0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:10.880 least what I'm manifesting, is a war a world tour. 0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:15.000 I wanted to ask you, like, how did you find 0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:18.560 all the stuff that was going on around you funny? 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:21.760 Because I'm sure a lot of it was heavy and 0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:24.320 a lot of it probably impacted you in different ways, 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:27.159 and so how did you kind of, you know, just 0:17:27.240 --> 0:17:29.600 being really being transparent, like, how did you pull yourself 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.080 out of that moment where you're looking around and you're going, 0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:34.439 ain't shit funny? But now I'm gonna still find a 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:37.600 reason to make y'all laugh about it. 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:39.119 It was a good question. I think that by the 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:45.920 time I decided to turn the experience of my suicide 0:17:45.920 --> 0:17:49.240 attempt last year into a stand up show, I was 0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:53.639 kind of already laughing at it. But by that point, 0:17:53.880 --> 0:17:57.600 you know, I had been in the hospital, I'd been 0:17:57.960 --> 0:18:03.320 in you know, this post hospital program. I've been you know, 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:06.520 and constant as I still am constant communication with my 0:18:06.600 --> 0:18:09.960 psychiatrist and my mom and stuff. So I was kind 0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:16.360 of already in the process of healing by the time 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:21.960 I started writing so it. I don't know. I think 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:32.200 just addressing the issue had on and committing to recovery, 0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:35.600 as scary as it was, was kind of what set 0:18:35.680 --> 0:18:38.720 the foundation for me to be able to laugh at 0:18:38.760 --> 0:18:42.480 it and joke at about it. But like, my humor 0:18:42.560 --> 0:18:46.320 is already so self deprecating in everything, so I never 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.119 really had a problem telling the story or making a 0:18:49.200 --> 0:18:54.120 joke about it. I figured I would. But yeah, once 0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:58.040 I kind of started to feel grounded again after the experience, 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:03.480 and you know, like I was coming out of the dark. 0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:06.439 If you will, I feel you, yeah, I feel that, like, Okay, well, 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:08.880 what's my assignment and what do I make out of it? 0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:09.840 And that's how it's. 0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:12.639 I know, that's right. Yeah, I asked. 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:16.000 The answer is really meaningful one for me on a 0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:19.200 personal level because when I was younger, I went through 0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:21.720 I then through a societem as well too, And I 0:19:21.760 --> 0:19:23.800 like when I tell a story about it to me, 0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:26.439 it's funny and people are like, that's right. 0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:28.080 I'm like, she's just sure. 0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:30.080 But like also like I fucking like broke my clauset 0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:31.280 doing it like it's funny. 0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:34.159 I'm almost fun than me. She's a girl, right, but 0:19:34.640 --> 0:19:35.159 it's funny. 0:19:35.200 --> 0:19:37.280 But I and so that I have a questions I 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:39.719 was gonna be ask you about about your career process. 0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:41.120 You do want to ask you, but I also want 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.439 me I'd like, you know, they got part two of it, 0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:45.399 So one I would love to hear more about, like 0:19:45.440 --> 0:19:47.800 your career process with me the tour, like you know, 0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:49.920 what was it she make make a material who helped 0:19:49.960 --> 0:19:50.240 you along? 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:52.920 Helped you along the way, But also what. 0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.680 About the tour like like might actually also be part 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:57.119 of the like recovery and healing process. 0:19:57.160 --> 0:19:57.840 That's a good question. 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:01.840 Yeah, that's a really good question. I think everyone's process 0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:08.840 in writing comedy for the stage is different. I think 0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:13.359 I was fortunate here as opposed to when I was 0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:18.000 touring stand up before, because this was so much about 0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:25.200 history and an experience that I kind of just ran 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:32.520 through what happened and found the funny in the moments. 0:20:32.600 --> 0:20:34.320 And there was a lot of it because this took 0:20:34.359 --> 0:20:40.280 place at Coachella, so like wow, okay, like of course, 0:20:40.960 --> 0:20:45.120 if you'll watched the video, the faces making yeah yes, yeah, 0:20:45.160 --> 0:20:50.320 I mean so there was a lot to say, not 0:20:50.359 --> 0:20:53.720 even just about that because for me and I think 0:20:53.720 --> 0:20:55.960 this is just the way that my mind works, there 0:20:56.040 --> 0:20:58.919 was a lot of zooming out that took place in 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:03.320 the actual career, a process and asking myself, well, why 0:21:03.320 --> 0:21:06.920 did we act, why did we react this way? Why 0:21:06.960 --> 0:21:09.880 did we feel this thing? Why did we wear that? 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:12.480 You know? You know what I mean? 0:21:13.280 --> 0:21:17.960 Make it makes sense girl? Yeah, yeah, it makes sense girl, right. 0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:21.520 And so I think like mucking around and all of 0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:25.600 that was what helped me kind of carve the story 0:21:25.640 --> 0:21:31.560 out itself. And then the healing part of it, I 0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:36.840 think is just I always use this word like incessantly assignment. 0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:40.080 I feel like people in my life are probably tired 0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:44.480
