You're listening to Draft Kings Network. Hello and welcome to South Beach sessions.

You know I like talking to the stand-up comedians, and very few are better than this guy.

He's been doing it a long time, and I'm a big fan of his.

He's got a new special out. It ain't right. November

21st on Hulu. You're still out here doing it. You're still out here crushing. It's Sebastian

Manuscalco with us. So where are you right now with the grind of the comedy tour? Are you still

every bit as hungry as you have been? Because're now also an academy award-winning film person?
