In this Smart Talk episode, I sit down with the hilarious Shanti Charan. We dive into her comedy journey, starting out at The Punchline Comedy Club in San Francisco. We also chat about the unique vibes of Florida versus California audiences and how the world's chaos sneaks into our jokes.

Shanti's got some wild stories from teaching in prisons. She talks about the challenges inmates face, the weird dynamics of masculinity and race behind bars, and those tiny bits of freedom we often take for granted. Plus, we geek out over our favorite prison movies, swap stories about food, and laugh about handling the toughest crowds.

We also find time to discuss Shanti’s love for tacos, her take on The Dark Knight, and her thoughts on heteronormativity. We wrap things up with some deep thoughts on personal growth, the power of gratitude, and the quirks of social media.

Tune in for laughs, insights, and a whole lot of fun!
