--------
Corey Holcomb sits down with Vlad to revisit his early move from Chicago to Los Angeles, including a cross-country drive with a revoked license, paper maps, and arriving right after Shaq and the Lakers won a championship. He reflects on career breakthroughs like The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Like Mike with Bow Wow, and voicing Robert Tubbs on The Cleveland Show.
The conversation also returns to Holcomb’s unforgettable Shaq’s All-Star Comedy Jam set in Dallas, where he says he delivered one of his strongest performances alongside Paul Mooney. Vlad asks about the controversial joke often referenced as calling his 3-year-old daughter a “ho like her mom,” and Holcomb explains how he views exaggeration, backlash, and being labeled a villain as a comedian.
Holcomb also addresses family friction, his daughter, Tasha K, YouTube commentary, and why public narratives don’t always match private reality.
