"Antinational" comedian Kunal Kamra has been on the scene for a few years now and is what I also call myself e.g. a "Lazy Hustler." He's had a hell of a week with a viral video and getting caught up in Indian politics (even getting tweeted by Arvind Kejriwal the morning after we recorded this) so this was a fun chat. And we of course jump into weight loss and other random stuff. Stick around after the closing, for a little Comedians On Streets Getting Biryani. Kunal is a very funny comedian and a super nice guy (once you get to know him) so please check out links below. Thanks for your time bro.

Joke Singh as he's known in the comedy scene has been doing the funny business in this country as long as I have. He's had a great 2016 and we've performed in so many countries together. We talk pretty much all standup and the Desi/International comedy scenes. Filmed during our run of gigs in Mumbai together in November. Great going bro and much more success for 2017. http://www.twitter.com/jokeSingh https://www.facebook.com/TheJokeSingh https://www.youtube.com/user/JOKEsinghComedyKing

Most people have seen his face, even more will soon know his name. Although we talk a lot of comedy, we did have a very honest sidetrack on Indian mothers and sons and the question of when is too much love possibly a difficult thing. Thanks Jeeveshu for the time and for always being a friend. You're a super funny dude and have a bright future ahead.

Vir Das was in California and we got to hang out and talk about many things in the comedy/entertainment world. Not only is he one of the most successful, funny and hardest working guys in the business, he's also a genuinely nice person who has a lot of wisdom to impress at such an early age. Huge movies, sold out tours and a packed schedule takes a certain type of person, and I thank him for being so open and candid about a lot of things here. This turned out to be quite fun and I really hope you guys get something good out of it as well, I know even for me I learned a lot about comedy and myself.
