Being a Mark For Yourself (with Ron Funches)

Ron Funches doesn't suffer from imposter syndrome, and it makes perfect sense, because he’s a truly talented and joyful stand-up comedian, and he knows it! During our conversation, we delve into his relationship with ambition, the art of comedy, and recognizing his successes. It's no wonder he has unwavering self-belief, he’s done the work. Ron's deep love for pro-wrestling and how it intertwines with his comedy is such an amazing metaphor for self-investment and pursuing our passions. My mind was blown about ten times during our chat, he was sharing such good wisdom with me that at one point I became speechless. Ron's standout quote of the episode was, “I am a vessel here to bring joy and I am the motherfu@king $hit!” Please note, Funny Cuz It’s True contains mature themes and may not be appropriate for all listeners.

Om Podcasten

Hello, and welcome to my podcast. I first went viral on TikTok after telling the story of how I got stuck buying 100 tacos on a first date. Since then, it’s been a wild and crazy ride. I now have millions of eyeballs watching my videos on a daily basis (which is just a terrifying number of eyeballs, honestly). Each week on my podcast Funny Cuz It’s True, I’ll be sitting down with my favorite creators, friends and comedians to find the stories that have stuck with them and changed their lives in small ways. Not so funny moments that have become funny over time. I want to know how they handled these situations and learned to laugh about them years later. How do they do it? Great question, I’d love to tell you (but you have to listen to find out).
