We're joined by Nemr Abou Nassar for Episode 116 of The Beirut Banyan, and we discuss his personal contribution to the spread of stand-up comedy in Lebanon and the Middle East and a wider appreciation for the power of humor in bringing diverse communities together.
Nemr is a stand-up comedian currently performing his 'The Future is Now' set. I saw him perform in New York and highly recommend catching him while on tour. His schedule and links to ticket purchases are updated on his website:
