I hope to use this platform to normalise and encourage the discussion of failure, particularly through the lens of the entertainment industry, to show that it can be a stepping stone towards the road of success. Nothing is better than humour to normalise a situation, so having deep and meaningful conversations, interspersed with comedy and laughter, helps us celebrate and appreciate life's frustrating moments.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-13T12:19:50.156457+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/funny-in-failure-1031063"},"episode":{"title":"#334: Emmanuel Sonubi - Finding Another Way","slug":"334-emmanuel-sonubi-finding-another-way","published_at":"2026-04-02T04:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/funny-in-failure-1031063/334-emmanuel-sonubi-finding-another-way","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/funny-in-failure-1031063","url":"https://funnyinfailure.libsyn.com/334-emmanuel-sonubi-finding-another-way","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/funnyinfailure/Emmanuel_Sonubi_Full_AUDIO_ONLY.m4a?dest-id=2063339","summary":"Emmanuel Sonubi is an award winning stand up comedian , TV personality, presenter, actor and writer.
