In this episode of Damn Internet, You Scary! comedians Tahir Moore and Patrick Cloud sit down with Jay Snow for an insightful and hilarious conversation. They explore the journey of filming a one-take comedy special, writing for top shows like "Wild ‘n Out" and HBO’s "Game Theory," and the struggles of maintaining creative control in entertainment. Dive into powerful stories like the legacy of Blind Tom Wiggins, a blind and autistic Black pianist who mesmerized audiences but faced exploitation, and the relentless courage of Harriet Tubman.
The trio also tackles contemporary issues like code-switching in media, the superpower of comedy to uplift communities, and even the absurd story of a drunk Southwest Airlines pilot! With freestyle reggae moments, comparisons between The Rock and Jack Black, and reflections on balancing authenticity with industry pressures, this episode is packed with laughs, knowledge, and relatable truths.
