Marlon’s immediate “You’re too young” when Josh said he lost his parents really hit. He was willing to joke but also became real so quickly.
The 'oh man you're too young for that' line hit me like a tonne of bricks
Hes just another major and fantastic example of comedy actor's being literally the best drama/horror actors
Him giving him a hug learning he lost his parents so early really hit me in the heart.
“I don’t get tired because I’m inspired” is such a hard line
Going from the emotional mom story to calling him zaddy 😂 genuinely a top tier episode
"Deep pain makes for great artists." "I hope that you felt seen, and thank you for seeing me." I thought I was only going to laugh on this episode. Marlon Wayans is so insightful.
“if you’re happy for most of your day then we’re successful” fck that hit me man
I so appreciate Marlon sharing how his child’s transition helped him heal. I experienced the same blessing with my son’s transition after some mighty tribulations in my life.
I love how he set him up to talk about Mula mush just so he could bring it out and impress him. That’s professional interviewing at its peak
