What happens when a stand-up comedian, a barber and a father come together to weave a story of culture, comedy, personal insights, and the occasional mishap? That's precisely the riveting journey we embark on with our guest, the multi-faceted Sergio El Cheko, also known as Sergio Bonbon. Join us in our captivating conversation about the My Grito podcast network, the Chicano Shuffle's six-year anniversary pachanga at Nativo, and a curious mystery about a myth busters episode and the code for the lift.
Mexican and Latino culture are as rich as they are diverse, and one of the unique aspects we explore in this episode is the tradition of nicknames. From Francisco to Pancho, Juan to Chente, we delve into how these nicknames evolve and shape identities. Sergio opens up about his migration to America at the age of eight, the sacrifices his parents made, and how these experiences have molded him. Adding a dash of humor, we also discuss the hilarious incidents that often occur during gender reveal parties.
Transcending beyond culture and comedy, we also dive into Sergio's profession as a barber. Get ready to laugh out loud as we narrate a hilarious account of a barbershop accident involving a sceptic powder and lice. We also share Sergio's journey from barbering to comedy. His advice for aspiring comedians offers a glimpse into the world of stand-up comedy, making this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking a blend of culture, comedy, and personal stories. Join us for an episode filled with laughter, learning, and a whole lot of love for Mexican and Latino culture.
