This Asian Hawaiian Over Here with Martin Urbano

Strong contender for Funniest Person on Earth Martin Urbano (This Fool, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Chris Gethard Presents) shares the performance situation that would be his hell, his desire to die in the apocalypse with everyone else, and the ups and downs of chasing your dreams.

Normally, I save process talk for the full convos on Patreon, and there's certainly more of it there, but I had to include some of it in the main episode too. It's a joy hearing Martin talk about doing research for his character and the deliberateness of his satirically offensive act.

Content warning: that Roseanne set making the rounds on Twitter, Pixar's Coco as existential balm, fight, drinking, Madame Tussauds.
