My first guest back in the new studio Ali Saddiq. We talk about how we first met. Comic view and his first TV appearance. We talk jail and what the racial divide is like. There's no rush like getting on stage as a new comic and Ali reminisces about the advice D.L. gave him as a young comic. We talk comedy circuits during the pandemics, sparring with big dudes and that Kevin Hart’s next tour should be in space! Hope you guys enjoy. See you next week!
