What's Up Fool?
Comedian Felipe Esparza talks with random people he finds interesting. It might be somebody kind of famous or it might be that homeless guy at the end of your street who you walk past every day without saying hello. Everyone has a story to tell about how they got where they are, no matter who they are.

To say this guy knows us from day 1 is an understatement. Martin Moreno has been touring with Gabriel Iglesias for about 12 years now. Before that, we were young comics struggling for years together on hell gigs, bar shows and anything that paid at least $20. We haven't seen Martin for about 6 years, maybe more and he made it a reunion by bringing his son Hooter and our old friend Ivan (Gabriel's assistant who I used to work with at Dodger Stadium). Listen as we talk about a bunch of road stories, sex, drugs, depravity and redemption. Please take 5 seconds to rate or review the podcast on itunes and if you like it subscribe!

Today Rodrigo is back from MX and we have another Hollywood insider - TV writer/showrunner/executive producer Peter Murrieta. Currently writing for CBS' "Superior Donuts", Peter was the showrunner on "Wizards of Waverly Place", staff writer on many other sitcoms and also was the showrunner on my pilot (that didn't get picked up yet). After we talk about food for an hour, listen to Peter's tales of the industry and why it's so hard to get a Latino sitcom on the air.

Fred Stoller returned to the studio today to tell us about his new Kindle single - a short book that he wrote called "Five Minutes to Kill" about what happened to all the comedians from the 1989 HBO Young Comedians special. He's also got some new stories about being on the road again this past year. Listen and go buy/review his book on Amazon - c'mon it's less than $2. Give him a good review so he doesn't jump off a cliff. Please take 5 seconds to rate or review the podcast on itunes and if you like it subscribe! Thanks for listening!
