About this listen
On this episode of The Pimp Game Podcast, comedian Big Fred takes us through his Baltimore upbringing and unexpected comedy origin story that started with losing his childhood Rottweiler, Midnight. Fred shares his first comedy experience at the Apollo Theater during a high school field trip and the lessons learned after headlining his first real show. He discusses opening for notable comedians Jess Hilarious and Marlon Wayans, plus his nonprofit "Lil' Laughs" that brings comedy-infused anti-bullying programs to schools nationwide. Fred explains how his organization creates engaging professional development for teachers and employment opportunities for fellow comedians. With insights on his comedy influences and a vision for Netflix specials that could showcase youth talent, Big Fred represents Baltimore's comedy scene while staying grounded in authenticity and community service.
