Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well King of comedy. Cedric the entertainer appeared on an
episode of Shannon Sharp's Club Sha Shape podcast last week,
and Shannon asked him to name his Mount Rushmore of comedians.
It's top four comedians of all time. Take a listen,
give me said Mount Rushmore. Comedians. Oh, man for me.

(00:22):
Richard Pryor, George Carlin, uh, the late Robin Harris, uh
uh Chappelle. That's all you get it. I'm about to say,
you're about to keep going. I was like, yeah, I
see that. I say, read exactly why you probably didn't
go to you know you about name five? It's only four? Yeah,
so yeah, I didn't go to it. Yeah see nah,

(00:44):
see why you didn't go hill Like it's five people
on that mountain, it ain't number four. A lot of
people don't know that. A lot of people don't know that. Yeah,
a lot of people don't know that. People know that
I had account. All right, comedians on the show, gotta
ask you the same question, junior, Who are your top

(01:05):
four comedians of all time? Oh? That's easy. Richard Prye,
M Martin, Lawrence, m Eddie Murphy, Come on, man, ump
like in my phone. Okay, all right, very good list.
Yeah what you got, nephew. Top four comedians of all time.

(01:27):
You're Mount Rushmore all time, Richard Mister, Richard Prye, the
King um see Eddie Murphy. All right, I'm going with
your pale too. Then I'm gonna do a wild card
on you. Robin Williams way he left, yeah, marm yes,

Steve Harvey. Top four comedians of all time. I don't know, man,
I really don't know. That's a hard one. I'm really
stuck because I really do and I studied this, you know,

(02:11):
this is such a huge part of my life. It's
all I wanted. I didn't want nothing else. So I'm
kind of tossed because I understand the timing of it all.
Chapelle is sheer greatness right now, right now. But I
know how Chapelle got there, you know, because if you

(02:33):
take away these Netflix specials, Chapelle is greatness. But it
was some greatness before he got there. And that's why
I'm kind of torn. Richard Prye is the greatest to
ever hold of microphone for me, George Carlin, when you
listen to him all his old stuff that I studied.

(02:58):
I have to give him to gnaw when it comes
to just sheer greatness. My third choice that should be
on that is Chris rock. I think rock Man, over
the course of time has been that dude man that
has always been for years, blacken and black and all

(03:23):
of that. You know what puts Chappelle up there right
now is he's the only one that can say whatever
he want to say. And he's an absolute genius addict. Yes, yes,
but yes. And I'm gonna be a little bit uh

(03:43):
vain here because I know what it launched. I know,
I know what launched uh epps, I know what it launched. Chappelle,
I know what it launched, Kevin. I just know what.
I know what it launched. A lot of stuff, man,

(04:06):
I don't I don't know. It's half me to say
I really want to back out of this one because
I want to put Chappelle up there. But I know
if it wasn't for the Kings of Comedy, man, a
lot of this don't even happen. A lot of this
does not happen. But it's just one unit. You know,
I conn't pick you know, we the four of us
together was a unit. It was. Yeah, just had to

(04:29):
put a photo up there. But if I can't be vain,
I had to go with Chappelle rock calling in prior. Okay,

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
