This Is Why I Drink... Cafecito with Jesse Rivera

from Barley & Me Hosted by Ben Rice

On this episode of This Is Why I Drink... with Ben Rice, I sit down with comedian Jesse Rivera to find out why he drinks cafecito and how that reflects his upbringing, his life, his comedy, and how he comports himself in society. Plus we talk about his other obsession, running shows at comedy clubs, getting into comedy in your 40s, and finding your way forward. We also discuss our upcoming show together, Like a Virgo, an all-Virgo comedian showcase at Punch Line Sacramento's Callback Bar Thursday, September 17th.
