Manpreet Singh aka TheComicSingh, joins us for a heartfelt, funny, and inspiring conversation about his journey in Stand-Up Comedy. From performing theatre like Ramleela and nukkad nataks to stepping into Punjabi stand-up comedy and auditioning for Laughter Challenge, he shares how it all started. He talks about how meeting the OG Amit Tandon changed his life, the bond he shares with him, and even the story behind getting his tattoo on his hand. Manpreet opens up about quitting his job with the support of his wife, building his content without overthinking, and performing across cities in India and internationally. He shares insights into corporate shows, the writing process, brand deals, and adapting with time. The episode also dives into his deep love for Amritsar, its food, streets, and the peace of the Golden Temple. From cricket leagues with comedians to funny travel incidents, and finally the Kaafi Wild Hai Round and Kaafi Wild Rapid fire, this episode is full of laughter, emotions, and real stories from a grounded comic.

In the span of 13 years of my career I had the privilege of meeting some amazing people and had some great conversations that have shaped me as a person. The purpose to start this podcast is to now share all those meaningful insights with my audience but keeping it chill and wild at the same time. I intend to create a podcast that you can tune into at the end of an exhausting day to relax and unwind, just like you would do with a friend. Hope you enjoy listening to this podcast as much as I enjoy recording it.
