Comedy is a way to take the power away from the darkness and make it less scary.
How do you find laughter in the darkest moments of life? In this episode of 'The Traumedy Hour', comedian Michael Malone dives deep into this question. After the heartbreaking loss of both his parents, Michael didn't just wallow in sorrow. Instead, he crafted his pain into a poignant comedy special, 'Laugh After Death'. This isn't your typical stand-up routine; it's a raw, honest exploration of grief, mental health, and the surprising power of humor.
Michael opens up about his journey through therapy, his battles with suicidal thoughts, and how he managed to keep his career afloat amidst the turmoil. And where better to discuss these heavy topics than Las Vegas, a city ironically known for its high suicide rates? Through candid conversation, Michael and hosts Lauryn Petrie and Jonas Barnes peel back the layers of what it means to find light in the darkest of places.
If you've ever wondered how to turn life's tragedies into something that can make others smile, this episode is a must-listen. Get ready for a blend of heartfelt moments and genuine laughs as they explore the therapeutic power of comedy.
