Ep 3: Comics Azhar Usman and Paul Elia Tell Us How Comedy Can Bring All Faiths Together


Listen Later

Join Carl Kozlowski and Scott Vinci for another great episode, featuring guests Azhar Usman (named "America's Funniest Muslim" by CNN) and his touring partner, Iraqi-American Chaldean Catholic Paul Elia! The two discuss how comedy brings peace in our turbulent times and how their devout faith impacts their careers and their sense of mission in the world. Plus, they tell us some amazingly funny stories from their careers!

We also explore how celebrity Nick Cannon handles fatherhood of 12 kids, take a fun look at St. Nicholas since this is our Christmas Week episode, and learn that he's not just a gift-giver but also the patron saint of repentant thieves, brewers and pawnbrokers - and Father Brannon Leppa answers why God needs a day of rest if he doesn't sleep, in "The Final Word"! It's laugh-packed!
