Carmen Christopher
from The Comic's Comic Presents Last Things First
Carmen Christopher wrote for and performed on The Chris Gethard Show, eventually hosting the first episode of "Chris Gethard Presents" on Manhattan Neighborhood Network. Christopher's other early credits included appearances on The Special Without Brett Davis, At Home with Amy Sedaris, High Maintenance, Alternatino with Arturo Castro, Shrill, Joe Pera Talks with You, and Search Party. He currently is a writer and performer on Craig Robinson's Killing It, is a recurring character on FX's The Bear, and a writer on Nathan Fielder's upcoming Showtime series, The Curse. And in 2021, his Street Special performed on the streets and sidewalks of New York City became the first original comedy special for Peacock. Christopher talked to me about his early years learning comedy in his native Chicago, auditioning for Saturday Night Live, and the differences between performing in New York and Los Angeles.
