The incredible and funny Casey Feigh joins My Pop Five for a fascinating dive into the cultural touchstones that shaped his unique comedic voice. With his signature warmth and thoughtfulness, Casey unpacks how everything from British comedy troupe Monty Python to Minneapolis hip-hop collective Rhymesayers Entertainment influenced his creative journey from small-town Minnesota to becoming a standout force in LA's comedy scene.
Casey's reflects on Spike Lee's impact starting with Lee's iconic Nike campaigns with Michael Jordan before discovering films like "Do the Right Thing" and "Malcolm X," which expanded his worldview in profound ways. The story of wearing a Malcolm X hat to soccer games in predominantly white Minnesota reveals how cultural influences can shape identity in unexpected ways.
What makes this conversation special is how Casey connects these diverse influences to his current work. His childhood love of Sesame Street directly feeds his improvisational approach ("doing improv is like just playing make-believe with my friends"), while his experiences playing team sports inform how he collaborates with fellow performers. The discussion reveals how creative identity forms through the cultural artifacts we embrace throughout our lives.
As co-founder of the acclaimed Holy Shit Improv group, Casey embodies the entrepreneurial spirit he admired in Rhymesayers, creating opportunities not just for himself but for an entire community of performers. His reflections on building something meaningful and authentic while maintaining artistic integrity offer valuable insights for creators in any field.
Whether you're a comedy fan, a fellow performer, or simply curious about how culture shapes our creative voices, this episode delivers thoughtful analysis alongside genuinely funny moments that showcase why Casey has become such a respected figure in comedy. Discover the pop culture that transforms ordinary experiences into extraordinary creative journeys.
