He also talks about the responsibility of clean comedians and those involved in ministry to bring hope, encouragement, and genuine connection instead of reopening wounds for cheap laughs.This episode is an honest discussion about empathy, healing, discernment, and what comedians should strive for if they truly want to leave people better than they found them.#wholeshbangrichjoneswww.richjonescomedy.com
