89 - Comedy and Christian Culture (w/ Shama4realz)

Comedian, Shama Mrema  ("shama4realz") loves the church and enjoys making "church folks" laugh. His Instagram features comedy sketches about evangelical culture, and the comments show that many Christians share the same humor. But, is there a line one can cross, when making light of Christian culture? Can one take it too far? In this week’s episode, you’ll get to know a little about Shama's background, including his origins in Tanzania East Africa, his current dwelling in Greenville, South Carolina, and how he stumbled upon comedy. Joey and Shama discuss the Christian faith, comedy in general, and the various facets of how Shama brings the two together.At the top of the episode, Roy, Lynne, and Tomelex have a conversation on the same topic of comedy, and also reflect on Roy and Lynne's trips to Africa, including Lynne's awareness of being perceived not by her common color with many Africans, but rather her status as an American.
