E 160 | Previously On Peace Talk

Episode #160 | Season 8 Episode 1 [R] I ended this podcast over a year ago. In that time I created a second podcast "Hey, Real Quick" (Available on Apple Podcast & Spotify) and stopped performing comedy for a few months. After traveling more and more, and doing consistent gigs the ideas of recreating this space to chronicle my comedy journey “The Magic” became necessary again. Dealing with a serious accusation/ lie this season will revolve around putting the broken pieces back together and the resurgence of comedian Day Peace after only doing 14 paid shows last year.
