Good One: A Podcast About Jokes
Comedy:Comedy Interviews
This week on Good One, host Jesse David Fox welcomes the “Egyptian Jon Stewart” Bassem Youssef to the podcast. A decade ago Youssef was a key figure in the Egyptian Revolution, hosting a satirical comedy show throughout it. But more recently Youssef garnered attention for his international viral appearance on Pier Morgan Uncensored. Youssef discusses how he approached the news segment as a piece of comedy and what satire can or cannot do.
Bassem is on tour now. Head to www.bassemyoussef.xyz/upcoming-shows for dates.
The Good One TV show, starring Mike Birbiglia, is premiering on March 26, on Peacock!
