Lil Rel joins Joy Taylor on Two Personal for a hilarious, vulnerable, and wide-ranging conversation covering everything from pizza, pigeons, and NBA beefs to the state of modern comedy. He opens up about therapy, anxiety, imposter syndrome, and how grief, sobriety, and the pressure of performance shaped the persona he once hid behind. Rel shares wild early-career stories — including performing at a baby shower and opening for male strippers — while reflecting on why Eddie Murphy inspired his entire journey. Joy and Rel close with sharp takes on internet culture, emotional intelligence, failing forward, and the legends who shaped them.
