FRANCISCO RAMOS Doesn’t Need an (American) Accent


Listen Later

Francisco Ramos is an LA-based, nationally known, Venezuelan-born comic. We had a lot of fun comparing notes on the power of accents, relationships out of our race, and life in the suburbs (he moved to Maryland when was was 12). You’ve seen Francisco on the "Gentefied" (Netflix) and Shameless (Showtime), as well as on Last Comic Standing (top 10 finalist), Comedy Central (@midnight), Jimmy Kimmel Live. You’ve even HEARD Francisco in the animated film “Rio” (he was Marmoset), and Cartoon Network’s "Victor and Valentino." His HBO standup special “Entre Nos” is a must-watch, as are his numerous sketches in Lorne Michael’s “Mas Mejor.” But it’s not all jokes with Francisco - even though he doesn’t take himself too seriously...
