Part 1: Corey Holcomb on Growing Up in Chicago's Robert Taylor Homes, Biggest Projects in the World
--------
Corey Holcomb sits down with Vlad for a candid conversation about edgy comedy, internet backlash, and why jokes shouldn’t always be treated as personal beliefs. The Chicago comedian addresses controversial bits, including his “date rape is an opinion” line, and explains how online critics can twist punchlines for likes and cancel-culture narratives. Holcomb also reflects on his relationship with Vlad, the 5150 show, and Vlad making the drive from Calabasas to Ontario to support his stand-up.
The discussion turns to Holcomb’s infamous Magic Johnson AIDS jokes from Shaq’s comedy special, including the mosquito line, as he compares risk-taking in comedy to artists like Louis C.K. He also talks about jokes involving EJ Johnson, Cam’ron’s Magic meme referencing Jay-Z, and why certain street-rooted humor connects with audiences outside Hollywood. Holcomb emphasizes that dark jokes aren’t hate—they’re part of his comedic lane.
