2021 Summer Vacation Series Destination: Los Angeles, California Read the article at comedywham.com This week Teddy Margas talks to Valerie Lopez about being born to perform, his love of standup comedy in all forms, getting to work with Joan Rivers and Rupaul, and his quest for his trademark glasses. Want to know more about comedy in Los Angeles, California? Teddy's recommendations for comics to check out from LA include: Percy Rustomji, Matt Marr, Oscar Aydin, and Gus Constantellis If you're in LA, Teddy recommends of course checking out the variety of shows (it's huge, almost too huge, in his words), but if you're a comic and you're reluctant to make the move to LA, as the ad campaign goes "just do it" he says.

I love it and hope you do, too! This episode is amaze. I've listened to it three times already and I never do that. Nina Manni and Teddy Margas are stand up comics, writers, actors, and producers. They also did audience warm up on Fashion Police and the stories they tell about Joan are amazing. I wish we could turn back time and tell her not to have surgery or to choose a different doctor.
