His life as a former police officer, Middle Eastern security contractor and bar owner have given him a platform of experiences to draw from that is invaluable as a standup comic. In recent years he has ventured into the world of producing comedy shows at his bars in the Midwest and his take on middle American crowds is a great listen! Funny stuff!

    In this episode we sit down with Fizaa Dosani, the super-talented creator of Facial Recognition Comedy, a monthly show highlighting South Asian comedians at The World Famous Comedy Store. Her observations on the changes in comedy over her 11 year career are extremely interesting in particular the way audiences have shifted from their behavior before the shutdown to the present day. It's a great listen!
