Rhys Foulke is an LA-based comedian originally from Charleston, SC. Catch Ryhs in LA and in Charleston sometime. He’s only been at it for a few years but I genuinely love watching work and I seeing him grow as a comic.
We discuss plagiarism, parallel thought, how over-glorified weed is, substance abuse, mental health, love, empathy, happiness, rooting for everyone to succeed, focusing on you in the wake of your peers’ successes, Vegemite, how underrated of a comedy scene the West Side has, and a whole bunch more.
This episode was recorded the day disgraced YouTuber “Def Noodles” copy and pasted my listing of mics in LA which yes, IS plagiarism (and not the first time he's done similar things), so naturally we make fun of him but spared no energy making fun of all of the YouTubers who go after him. Most of it was pretty playful.
In the month since recording this episode, a crazier story unfolded that ultimately resulting in him discontinuing virtually all operations at Def Noodles Comedy Club. I'm not going to get into that publicly, but in my eyes, all of those YouTubers are heroes to the LA comedy scene (Special shoutout to Moist Cr1TiKaL and SunnyV2).
(I know, some juicy shit right here!)
