  • Humor's Mirror on Life with Dontee' Ray
    Mar 27 2024

    Ever wondered how a comedian finds the spark to ignite a crowd with laughter? My latest guest, the effervescent Dontee' Ray, sits down with me, Jerome Davis, to unravel the magic behind his comedic journey. From his beginnings in improv with the Black Top Improv Group to lighting up the stage at Atlanta's Uptown Comedy Corner, Dontee' blends his Northern roots with a dash of Southern charm to create a brand of humor that strikes a chord with audiences everywhere. He opens up about his life philosophy, where kindness is king and positivity reigns supreme, sharing how his comedic heroes from Eddie Murphy to George Burns have influenced his path.

    Laughter often mirrors life, and in this episode, we dissect how comedy resonates so deeply when it reflects our own experiences. Dontee' 'Sherman' character is a testament to that, and we muse over the quirks of fame and the evolving landscape of comedy from live skits to the digital age. I sprinkle in my two cents, drawing from years of mentoring Atlanta's up-and-coming laugh architects, and we stress the non-negotiable: professionalism is just as crucial offstage as on.

    The standing ovation of our conversation crescendos with hard-won wisdom for the stand-up warriors braving hecklers and the sobering silence of virtual shows. Dontee' and I swap stories of resilience, the kind that has you bouncing back onto the stage after a tough night, and we paint a picture of the challenges during the pandemic when the lights dimmed on live entertainment. For those dreaming of a life in comedy, let Dontee's infectious spirit and dedication be your guide. I invite you to tune in, follow his journey, and let's keep the laughter echoing long after the curtain falls.

Skeeta G, a name synonymous with belly laughs, joins us to unravel his journey from classroom antics to dominating the stand-up stage, weaving tales of the moments that catapulted him into the spotlight. Revel in the stories of his community's unwavering support, his brushes with comic royalty like Martin Lawrence, and the transformative influences of Jamie Foxx on his craft.

    The comedy circuit is no walk in the park, and this episode doesn't shy away from the truth of the grind. Skeeta G and I dissect the complexities of keeping comedy fresh and audiences coming back for more, tackling the conundrum of new talent versus seasoned veterans. Stripping back the layers of comedy camaraderie, we confront the evolution from tight-knit networks to solitary pursuits, emphasizing the importance of humility and mutual support. With Skeeta G's insight, we navigate the maze of marketing shifts from tangible DVDs to the digital dominance of social media in a comic's career trajectory.

The curtain falls with advice for up-and-comers facing the pivot from television to the internet – where resilience is key, and a unique voice is your golden ticket. We wrap up with a nod to Skeeta G's remarkable journey, a challenge to support the diversifying landscape of comedy, and an intriguing off-camera surprise involving our beloved guest and a mysterious collectible.

  • The Comedian's Odyssey with Dara Jemmott
    Mar 13 2024
    As I welcomed the irresistibly witty Dara Jermott onto the show, we couldn't help but swap audition horror stories and the sort of comedy venue nightmares that comedians whisper about in hushed tones. Dara regaled us with the twist of fate that led her to the stand-up stage and the raucous journey that followed, including a brush with America's Got Talent that proved talent can be found in the most unexpected places. Our laughter echoed as we recounted gigs on perilous rooftops and streets straight out of a hip-hop track, proving the path to comedic success is anything but straight and narrow.

    Our conversation took a turn down the less-traveled roads of the comedy tour life, where the spotlight is often accompanied by a hefty dose of solitude. We shared tales from the road, the pre-show jitters, and the post-performance buzz that all comics chase, whether the night was a roaring success or a lesson in humility. Listeners get a backstage pass to the triumphs and trials that come with connecting with crowds from every corner of the map and the strategies that make anywhere feel like home for a night.

    Wrapping up with the vibrant Dara Jammott we discovered just where to find her infectious humor online. From her energetic Facebook page to her Instagram handle, @chocolatejem, Darareveals how she keeps fans laughing between shows while steering clear of the Twitterverse. As we bid farewell, remember to support the comedians who keep our spirits high by engaging with our content and maybe, just maybe, you'll be inspired to share your own slice of humor with the world.
