This past week, it was great inviting Joy Moore for a chat. I first met Joy at the Comedy Chateau festival of 2023 and have been a fan of her since then. Her comedic material is super intelligent and unique, and she often leans into edgy dark comedy as well. She's also a STEM gal with her degree in astrophysics 🪐 and mathematics. You can find her at clubs such as The Ice House, Flappers Comedy Club in Burbank, Fourth Wall Cafe, PDA Altadena and more! We discussed a variety of things from growing up with autism, rejection sensitive dysphoria, learning dark comedy from Anthony Jeselnik and more. Thank you so much, Joy. Please follow her at @joy_moore_comedy and the whole clip link is available on YouTube from my LinkTree and also here (https://youtu.be/x13o9Tqcpng) 

this month, I interviewed Mammal who is a PNW native and also ex-new yorker! Mammal has been great to watch at clubs like Def Noodles where I got to meet him. He's great at riffing in and out of material and always has pearls of wisdom to share with me. Thank you so much, Mammal!

Reid aka Scorpio ♏ psychic. He calls himself more of an introspective introvert. He also doesn't like it when I talk about Canada. When he performs, Reid is very adept at reading the feelings of the room, freely riffing on them and leaning into unscripted material. It was great having him over to Studio City for a nice chat. Reid has a girlfriend, sorry ladies. His IG is reidbrackenbury
We ended up talking a lot about mental health, anxiety, introverted personality and Quiet on Set sex scandal.

This past week Marlana Marie (IG handle marlanamarie) and I shared an interview! Marlana is a veteran stage actress, comedian, writer, and host at THC whom I’ve known since the Burbank Comedy Festival of 2023. I always love visiting her when she hosts at The Hollywood Comedy and admire her positive vibrant energy and the way she connects with people through enthusiasm. Picked her brain on all things acting-related, comedy-related and being a mom-related. Thanks Marlana.

This week, I enjoyed interviewing a friend of mine from the LA comedy scene Mr Mark Kraus for a candid interview on camera as my first guest on an interview video series I just started. I admire Mark’s comedy and punchy, intelligent material. we discussed comedy, life, Asian stuff and things pissing us off in the comedy scene 😆 Please find Mark at IG markskraus #lacomedyscene #losangelescomedyscene #losangelescomedy #hiddengemsoflosangeles #terrybuinterviews #losangelescomedians #comedianscandidinterview

Ivan Salas is a former wall street/Harvard MBA grad-turned comedian and an Argentinian-American whom I always felt like I share a lot in common with. Ivan and I talked a lot about mental health and how our past struggles and breakups shaped us into the people we are today. Ivan went to Harvard which makes him a lot smarter than me LOL I loved listening to Ivan's experiences about what made him want to leave his former banking/business life and turn to comedy and the artistic world instead. I run into Ivan a lot when we go up at the Happy Hour bucket lottery at the Hollywood Improv. He also gave me a lot of great feedback on my own comedy. Big thanks to Ivan!!
