Hey Idiots!

Hey Idiots!My guest this week is one of my favorite people in the world, Lance Allen! He's so insanely hilarious and a genuine good friend (which is not always an easy thing to find in Los Angeles).This conversation actually last TWO hours and so I'm breaking it into to episodes, the second of which will focus all on Lance's mental health journey and drop later this year. (You can hear the full thing right now with no intro or ads on Patreon)We managed to have a ton of laughs in this episode despite the fact that the root of the conversation was on what it's like growing up as a black man in Chicago when your father is in the police department. It's a REALLY great chat and, in my opinion, a really important perspective to share.Follow Lance on InstagramSend your own idiot story or idiots in the news to ignoranceisblessedpodcast@gmail.comSubscribe to me on PUNCHUP for exclusive standup videos and to be notified when I'm near you. PLUS discover other comedians you'll love!Subscribe, rate, and review Ignorance is Blessed on the iTunes podcast app!Join the FACEBOOK GROUP and let me know what you thought of this episode!

Hey Idiots!OH. MY. GOD. This episode is so great and really touched on some things that I think are so important for society, as a whole. My guest, Juliet Obodo, a Master NLP Practitioner and Hypnotherapist really hits the nail on the head of the deep trauma that seeps it's way into our individual lives and collective energy. We talk about the myths of what hypnotism is, dive into ancestral trauma and more. Juliet is doing some really important work in the world and I'm so grateful she was able to take time from helping people heal to talk to me about it. I really think you'll all love this one. Please find me on social media or join the FB group and let me know what you think.
