Comedian Felipe Esparza talks with random people he finds interesting. It might be somebody kind of famous or it might be that homeless guy at the end of your street who you walk past every day without saying hello. Everyone has a story to tell about how they got where they are, no matter who they are.

You don't get to witness much new stuff in stand-up comedy these days, but our old friend Ahmed Ahmed was the first to start Muslim/Middle East comedy in the American stand-up world about 10 years ago and we got to witness it taking off. He stopped by the show this week to talk about how he got into comedy, how his parents reacted to him wanting to be a comedian, and our old Hollywood stomping grounds when we were young comedians.
