Traveled from Dallas to NY to do my Cellar audition, and I got passed! Part of me still thinks it’s not real. But I finally did my paid spots at Comedy Cellar. I hope I can be an inspiration for my fellow comics in Dallas that dreams are possible.
A while back, I found out about
@pengdangcomedy
because of a tweet of his I RT’d that had a video that went viral. I played Dallas this past weekend and asked him to do all of my shows with me. Very funny. Follow him. 👏🏽
Sold out show in Houston last week! First time performing with an all Asian lineup in front of a mostly Asian crowd in Texas! Can’t think of a better way to celebrate Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Had a great show at Addison Improv! Mark Normand
@marknorm
was in the audience, and I made him laugh! What an honor! The clip is being shared on Chinese social media Weibo. It already hit 200k clicks and 70k plays in just a couple days!

I gave Shang Chi 5 stars before I watched it. As Asian, I can only say it's good, because Shang Chi is our Obama now. I'll help keep the approval rating high till he gets his second term. Until the sequel comes out, it is the best movie in the world.

Why would you be anti Asian?! Without us, you wouldn’t have Wu-Tang Clan! No 36th Chamber of Shaoling, or Kungfu Kenny. Who would wanna listen to 36th Chamber of Commerce by Mississippi Clan? and DNA by Zumba Kenny?

My first headlining weekend in Dallas! Please come out to support me! Spread the word! 4 shows (6/3-6/4) at Dallas Comedy Club. The incredible
@ralphbarbosa03
(HBO Max) and
@arunformylife
will be on all four shows with me!
I had the pleasure to watch Clayton English when I started comedy in Atlanta. He was super funny and nice to everyone. It’s so cool that I get to perform with him this weekend at Addison Improv
@addisonimprov
! You have 5 chances to catch us. Hit me up for complimentary tickets.
Patton Oswalt
@pattonoswalt
is challenging comedy clubs to book more female comics and POC! Everyone please read this thread! He is speaking the truth 🙌
The thing is, a WHOLE LOT of my comedian friends have been pointing out how, for some reason, your lineups have shifted back to the way I remember comedy back in the late 80s. Namely, mostly dudes, maybe one or two women…
Came to the US when I was 25. I knew very little about the country. Having to learn so many things in such a short time is like binge watching a show called America. I’m not caught up yet.
I got to open for Leanne Morgan at the Majestic Theater, Cullen Performance Hall, and Choctaw Grand Theater within one weekend! I was so excited after the first show, I couldn’t fall asleep. Even looking at the photos on my phone feels surreal to me!
Had a fun weekend working with Cristela and Steve again. Thank you for having me host your shows at the Houston Improv
@ImprovHouston
! Thank you Houston ! See you next time .
Dallas boys represent! Great hanging out! It was so cool to know each and everyone of you guys. Congratulations on Paul and LaRon’s
#moontower
appearances!
Hnored to share stage with Cristela Alonzo, Steve Halasz, and Paul Varghese! We all took standup class from the great mentor Dean Lewis. It was a special moment to see him in the crowd watching us, proud of us.
@cristela9
was so hilarious! She got 2 standing ovations in 1 night!
Is Andrew Yang doing comedy now?
@AndrewYang
hook a brother up with universal basic tickets and free drinks 🙏 I’ll do the same for you if you come to mine .

shows us how much Asians are willing to do to pay off debts. But The US is 23 trillion in debt. I wanna see the American remake. Time to put our senators in green jump suits to offset some national debts.

I don't get the double standard. When Paris was under attacked, everyone was posting "I'm Paris". People say "too soon" when someone does a Kobe joke. But when tragedy happened to Chinese people, it's time to write some jokes!

F around and find out! This uncle came from Hunan, the hometown of General Tso 左宗棠!It’s the Texas of China ! Don’t mess with Hunan ✊💪
You might see me on TV soon driving this camera mounted car while telling jokes. I felt like Jackie Chan filming a car chase scene, although I was only doing 20 miles/ hour. I’m a very solid driver 😤
Picnic means eating on the ground. The word in Chinese is野餐, or “savage meal”. Imagine a Chinese guy taking a girl on a date, “today, we’re eating egg sandwiches on the grass like them savages. But tomorrow, we’re eating chicken feet indoor like normal people”
I showed up at an air force base wearing suit and tie, and got offered a job as a sushi chef. The only condition is that I must speak English with a Japanese accent.
I’ll never forget my first ever job interview when I was 16. It was at Walmart and I wore a tie and a fedora to impress the interviewer. I promptly got the job of pushing carts for 7.25/hr. So you know what they say-dress for the job you’re too mentally incapable of doing!
This Just Happened is a monthly comedy showcase at Dallas Comedy Club. This is not a regular standup show. Comedians are asked to ditch their regular routines and perform standup jokes based on what happened in the news.
It’s going to be a busy weekend! Fri-Saturday, I’m doing 4 shows with Bret Ernst (seen on
#CobraKai
) at Dallas Comedy Club. Excited to work with him and my big brother Raj Sharma

So glad to see you at

@LeanneComedy
! You killed so effortlessly. I have never seen anything like this. Standing ovation from the balcony to the orchestra section! 😱🤯🤩
3/16/2021 I will never forget the day innocent Asian women were killed in the Atlanta Spa shooting. Delaina Ashley Yaun, Paul Andre Michels, Xiaojie Tan, Daoyou Feng, Hyun Jung Grant, Suncha Kim, Soon Chung Park, Yong Ae Yue. Their lives matter.

I see signs of a strong US economy: US housing turned into a seller’s market, even the roles in real estate porn are reversed. Now the home buyers are offering sex for chances to close deals.
#Shangchi
taught us one lesson: due to the male/ female imbalance in China, it’s hard for Chinese men to find wives. You gotta carry ten rings to catch one wife. Dating scene in China is like a game of ring toss. You miss 100% shots you don’t take
What a crazy world! Gulf War was the first war televised live. This might be the first war human beings watched live on TikTok…

Taliban is like Rocky Balboa. They keep fighting even though we tried to stop them 20 years ago, they keep coming back with sequels. Both had epic fights with Russians in the 80’s. But “it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward”
Back at it again with another Saturday late show at

@LindaStogner
is an Emmy Award winning comedian who is going to appear on a major streaming platform. You must check her out!
My good friend Clinton’s family needs help for his mother’s cancer treatment . She just went through her first lung surgery last month. She is brave and strong but needs financial support to get through this.

If you are in LA this Saturday, go support this benefit show for Corona Virus patients in China🙏❤️. I'll be at the show doing a short set to show my support. #加油武汉 #加油中国 🇨🇳

Late in posting about this. I had to make sure this isn't a mistake 😳because out of hundreds of comics internationally, I was chosen to perform at The Portland Comedy Festival! Can't believe how lucky I am! 🎉🥳
I will be performing at

I’m good. I don’t have a problem. Shane Gillis does. He messed up cuz he used a racial slur and didn’t make it funny. Tried to pull that a couple more times but failed. How is it my problem?
@davidbfung
So true! I can't think of any important entertainers or politicians who got fired for mocking Asians. A slap on the wrist then they are off the hook
Finally met my hero Joe Wong last night! Ten years ago, I was blown away by his performance at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. I wouldn’t be on stage today without you trailblazers! Thank you for showing me…

I can't read his mind but the conversation itself was ignorant. "Chinatown started as one fucked up looking building"? No. Chinatown started with discrimination. Chinese were brought to America to build railroad. They weren't welcome in other parts of the city.
