Alright!! We are back this week with the latest episode of Emergence Now, where Nikos and Dhiren sit down with standup comedian, comedy coach and the host of Miami Comedy Podcast Manny Garavito. Manny shares his journey from struggling stand-up comedian to building a thriving comedy ecosystem in Miami, including a virtual comedy club, a podcast, and his coaching practice. Together, they explore how comedy remains one of the few spaces where boundaries can be pushed, uncomfortable truths can be tackled, and humor can bridge divides in an increasingly sensitive world.

Manny dives into the craft of comedy, discussing the power of satire, the nuances of humor in a hyper-political climate, and how comedians navigate the challenges of cancel culture while staying authentic. He also shares his insights on using humor as a tool for connection, resilience, and even therapy, whether in person, on stage, or in the digital realm.

If you’re curious about how laughter can spark change, challenge norms, and heal the human experience, this episode is for you.
