My HoneyDew this week is comedian Francisco Ramos! Check out his new comedy special, Venezuela'Merican, on YouTube now! Francisco joins me to highlight the lowlights of his Venezuelan upbringing in America, his family dynamic, the passing of his late father, and the impact it has had on his life since. Francisco describes what it’s like living with a double identity—being himself at home, but ‘Frank’ at school. He shares the warm way his grandma would greet him by saying things like, “You’ve gotten fat.” He opens up about his family's challenges in expressing emotion to one another, even during a time like his father’s passing. Francisco also talks about leaning more into his Venezuelan roots in comedy as a way to feel connected to his late father now.

My Honeydew this week is Hannah Berner! Check out her new special, “We Ride at Dawn,” out on Netflix now. You can also catch her on her podcasts “Berner Phone” and “Giggly Squad.” Hannah joins me to highlight the lowlights of her childhood, becoming a nationally ranked tennis star, and how it led to her pivot into comedy. Starting as early as eight years old, Hannah talks about the dedication she had to the sport of tennis, leaving middle school in Brooklyn, New York, to attend a tennis academy in Florida. From playing on a boys' team due to Title IX to playing collegiately for Wisconsin, Hannah sheds light on the pressure, emotions, and mental burnout that came with having such high expectations placed on herself. We discuss how being hit by a car ended Hannah’s collegiate tennis career, allowing her to really find comedy, and the joy and fulfillment that have come with it.
