Episode 38: Mekki Leeper, From College to White House

Hi Working Comic Fans, In this episode, I interviewed the very funny and talented Mekki Leeper. He's only 24 and he's tearing up the comedy game. His standup has been featured on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Just For Laughs: New Faces, Comedy Central’s Up Next, and he was named a Comedian You Should Know by Vulture in 2018. He also wrote for the 2017 White House Correspondents Dinner. In this episode we talk about some really cool stuff such as dropping out of college to pursue comedy, touring different comedy scenes while in college, getting a life changing e-mail, being a stand up comic vs being a comedian, working on comedy central projects, and balancing projects and stand up.
