This episode is a live recording with audience from the showing of Jerrod Carmichael Reality Show at Bremen Teater during CPH:DOX 2025.

Together with the brilliant Jerrod Carmichael, himself, we talk about honesty, performance, and what it means to tell the truth on and off stage.

The conversation dives into Carmichael’s raw and deeply personal approach to comedy — his reflections on vulnerability, identity, and the politics of being seen.

We also explore the art of turning confession into creation, and how Reality Show pushes the boundaries between documentary, performance, and reality itself.

Reality Show from 2024 is Jerrod Carmichael’s most daring work to date — a hybrid of stand-up, documentary, and social experiment that challenges both the audience and the artist.

We highly recommend EVERYONE to experience this conversation — and if you haven’t yet, watch Reality Show on HBO.

It’s unlike anything you’ve seen before, we promise.

ENJOY!
