Summary
Today I sat down with Brad Williams — a stand-up comic that even Robin Williams loved. In this episode, Brad opens up about what really happens behind the scenes at Disney, tells the wild, untold story behind his run-in with John Stamos, and shares stories about Carlos Mencia and Robin Williams that shaped his career. We also get into stand-up comedy, marriage, raising a daughter as a little person, and so much more. This is one of the best, most honest conversations we've had on the show.
