He's also the host of Politically Aweh, the independent political satire show that's been steadily growing into something significant.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode we get into how KG writes, which is mostly in his head, and how a 30-second idea can become 15 minutes of material a year later. We talk about why arena shows are actually easier than club gigs, the corporate circuit and what it's like to die at one and then share the car ride home with the person who booked you, how his stint at Politically Aweh started during COVID and why final cut matters more than any TV deal, and we get into the fitness journey that started as something personal and somehow ended up inspiring strangers to start running.
