Sipping champagne, mimosas, and hard ciders brings the hilarity and chaotic energy of the “It’s Crazy You’re In My Business” (ICYIMB) podcast. In this episode of Unpacking Ethical we unpack comedy with ICYIMB's two hosts, Becky and Ta’Vi. We discuss how they got into comedy, their experience as Black femme comedians and why side characters are the best. Turns out ghosts can be bougie and Sharmon is obsessed with corny and absurd tv shows.
