  • Episode 10: Hawaii (Qin Mobley)
    In my first episode of the second season, I got my friend Qin Mobley. Me and Qin's friendship goes back to 2000 when we play Pee-Wee football for the West Elementary Raiders. Even back then he was always in his bag when it came to art. We discuss what inspired him during his youth as an artist; how he transitioned into painting and designing clothes; we take jabs at each other for being fans of rival football teams in both the college and pro ranks; and discover a shocking revelation in regards to his art. #art #painting #drawing #raiders #miamihurricanes #mississippi #stateflag #clothingline

  • Episode 9: Pornstar-ish (Richie Estrada)
    Well this episode was real different. Having the day off, I decided to do an episode with a comedy buddy of mine from my time in San Diego. We talked about his earlier life bouncing back and forth from L.A. to San Diego, and eventually living in Tijuana. We then stumbled onto the topic of him doing porn (which I TOTALLY forgot about), and the episode went from there. It was real insightful...and dope in my opinion! Check it out...

  • Episode 8: Compton Auntie (Tamiko Kirkland)
    Finally got a lady on the show Everybody has that one Aunt that they can joke around with at every family function, and this episode with Tamiko Kirkland was no different. Hailing from Compton, CA, she knows her far share of hard time from doing prison time to have a tumultuous marriage to being to a long hail trucker. We talked about how both prison and military are similar and swapped stories about getting arrested. She also revealed how she got into Comedy, and while it's not her goal to be famous anymore, how she would react if given the opportunity to do so.

  • Episode 7: Phunny Phrat (Kadeem Fuller)
    This episode features not only a stand up comedian that I watch come into the game, but a fraternity brother of mine who I help initiate into Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.

  • Episode 6: The R&B Whisperer (Marlan Ballard)
    This episode was pretty much like being back in Atlanta having a late night politicking session with my homeboy at Waffle House. I've know Marlan since he started comedy in 2012, and this episode is no different from the talks we used to have all the time. We discussed how he turned his love for R&B into a podcast which lead to him getting going on the road with those acts. We also reminisced on some wild memories we had from our days as brand new comedians hustling in Atlanta. This one was too special for details. Just check it out. #comedy #jokes #marlanballard #rnb #ginuwine #druhill #jodeci #swv #envogue #htown #silk

Terrance then reveals how a relationship lead him not only to California, but to the stage. We move on to how a festival kept him on his toes, coming up with material on the fly...for 8 hours. We concluded the episode with Terrance explain how he wants his name to be infamous. #Anchor #Spotify #Podcast #Comedy #Laughs #Jokes #VenturaCalifornia #NewOrleans #CashMoney #NoLimit #Saints #LSU
