TigerBelly

A comedy podcast where stand-up Bobby Lee and his best friend Khalyla Kuhn have unfiltered, chaotic conversations with other comedians.

The brief

A long-form interview show where comedian Bobby Lee's chaotic energy and improvisational humor drive conversations. Joined by co-host Khalyla Kuhn, they explore personal stories, cultural topics, and the comedy world with guests, who are typically fellow comedians. The format is loose, often veering into absurd scenarios, culturally naive questions, and improvised songs. [JXc52JfdyNI, iy7H5ldplWI]

The show's core is the unique, often unpredictable dynamic between Bobby Lee and Khalyla Kuhn. It stands out for its willingness to tackle sensitive topics like race and cultural identity with a mix of genuine curiosity and comedic ignorance, and its prominent position as a leading Asian-American podcast.
