Welcome to Mick Unplugged, where we ignite potential and fuel purpose. Get ready for raw insights, bold moves, and game-changing conversations. Buckle up. Here's Mick.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another exciting episode of Mick Unplugged. This one's going to be a little bit different. I'm starting with a public service announcement and a disclosure. If you are driving your car, go ahead and pull over. If you're eating food, put it down.
If you are drinking anything, sit the cup or glass down because Mick Unplugged and Mick Hunt will not be responsible if you wreck your car or choke on food or water today. Because today's guest... is a versatile comedian, a speaker, a social media influencer, a media personality whose content has taken the internet by storm over the last several years.
Known for his God Ain't Please rants, he has shared the stage with comedy legends like Kevin Hart, Ricky Smiley, Mike Epps, and many, many more. But beyond the stage, he inspires and uplifts youth, conducting workshops and seminars on high schools and colleges. Ladies and gentlemen, I told you the disclosure in PSA.
Get ready for an uproarious conversation with my guy, the person I consider top five comedian alive, Mr. Alton Walker. Alton, how you doing today, brother?
Man, what's going on, man? What's happening, bro? I'm just trying to be in your world, man. Man, thank you for letting me be in your world. For real, man, I appreciate it. Hey, y'all excuse my background, man. I got stuff falling off and everything on my wall.
All good, man.
You got to create your own personal studio so my soundproof stuff is falling off and everything. I want a background like yours. I'm like, look at his background.
Hey, $5 still goes a long way, bro. $5 and I got you covered. I got you covered, man. So we gave everybody enough time to pull over and to put all their food and drink down. So we're going to get into it, man. Like, again, I've been a huge follower of yours probably since the R&B workouts, right?
