Ep. 7: Comic Augie T ~ When Life Hits Hard, Hit Back LAUGHING!

What happens when life knocks the wind out of a local boy comedian? Augusto "Augie T" Tulba's journey from the comedy stage to the Honolulu City Council chambers reveals a man whose toughest battle wasn't fought in either arena, but in coming to terms with his brother's unexpected death.Growing up extremely poor in Kam IV Housing, Augie learned resilience early. But when he ran for City Council, life threw an unexpected punch – he & his wife were fired from their radio jobs the very day he filed his candidacy.And it was WHO stood by him in this challenging time that spoke loudest: No one... except his brother & a cousin – both ex-convicts. This hit harder when Augie's brother passed unexpectedly. Now juggling roles as comic, MC, councilman &  radio personality, Augie approaches life with renewed passion. "It's finding the strong, not the wrong," he smiles. His story reminds us that sometimes our greatest growth comes through our deepest pain. Take a moment, take a listen, take a WIN! Catch more Augie T's shows across Hawaii & USA: www.AugieTLive.com IG @DawnOBrienHIFB Dawn O'Brien HIwww.ChooseAloha.orgIG @alohaalivepodcastyoutube.com/@AlohaAlivePodcast
