The Greek Godfather - Paul Virzi

Comedian Paul Virzi stops by to talk about being the godfather to Yanni’s daughter, how he crushes speeches and more! Being a Godfather (Νονός / Nonós) in the Greek Orthodox Church is a big deal and carries significant religious, social, and lifelong responsibilities. It’s not just an honorary title—it’s a sacred role. The godfather plays a central role in the baptism, answering on behalf of the child, reciting the Nicene Creed, and physically lifting the child out of the water (symbolizing their rebirth in Christ). He’s got to protect her from the devil! Being asked to be a godfather is a huge sign of trust and honor in Greek families.
