Episode 2.8 - You'll Never Hear The Music Man The Same Way Again (Joel Kim Booster)

Why Here - A podcast by Benton Whitley and Tristan McAllister

Categories:

Can you imagine getting up in front of thousands of people to talk about your conservative religious upbringing AND your sexual exploits? Joel Kim Booster can. His humor is unapologetic, honest and intriguing. On this week's episode of Why Here, the Korean-American comedian and writer shares how he tactfully navigates conversations about race and sexuality with humor ... and what his "first time" sounded like. It's a conversation that proves why James Corden, Conan O'Brien and Comedy Central have all invited him to perform, and why shows like Big Mouth put him in their writer's room. At the end, Matt Rogers, Joel's friend and host of Las Culturistas podcast as well as HBO Max's smash hit Haute Dog, joins in for a “fact check."
