Baltimore comedian Umar Khan joins us for a raw and hilarious breakdown of comedy, aging, marriage, and why he never chased the Hollywood dream.
We talk about bombing on stage, green room gossip with Tim Dillon and Mark Normand, being too old to party, and the strange joy of staying local.
From weed paranoia and Facebook fights to fighting waves of 10-year-olds and whether comedy is even worth it anymore, this episode is equal parts stand-up wisdom and existential dread.
🎙 Hosted by Justin Anderson
