Part 2 of our fascinating conversation with “The Godfather of Urban Comedy” Bob Sumner. From being the talent coordinator for “Def Comedy Jam”, Bob tells us the stories about finding Bernie Mac, Chris Tucker, & Bill Bellamy. From deciding on Martin Lawrence to be the host, to Sheryl Underwood driving cross country to audition for him, to Joe Torry having a hard time replacing Martin, to TK Kirkland not getting on the show, Bob takes us on his comedy journey. We also discuss him booking Bad Boys of Comedy, other people creating stand up shows without him, and creating his own “LaffMobb” platform. If u wanna know the history of urban comedy this is the episode to hear.
