From fleeing racism in Norway to going viral in L.A. comedy clubs, Nacya Marreiro has lived more lives than most before 35...and she’s telling all of it. In this episode, Saraya sits down with the fiery stand-up and former pro wrestler to unpack her brutal early experiences in the ring, surviving abuse, marriage, addiction, and her rise as one of the sharpest, most unfiltered voices in comedy. They talk about the wild path from Portugal to punchlines, the truth about sobriety, dating disasters, and why Nacya’s one-woman show Blood in Her Gills is her biggest act of defiance yet. Fierce, vulnerable, and laugh-out-loud outrageous. This one cuts deep.

You know him as Art the Clown—but behind the silence, the prosthetics, and the gallons of blood is a performer with heart, humor, and a hell of a story. In this episode, David Howard Thornton joins Saraya to reveal how childhood mimicry turned into a voice acting superpower, how grief rerouted his path from teacher to cult horror icon, and how a $35,000 indie film changed his life forever.
