Comedian D.L. Hughley is hitting the airwaves in a big way. He has tapped well-known media personality Jasmine Sanders to co-host The D.L. Hughley Show with him. In addition to airing on 105.3 RNB in Charlotte, The D.L. Hughley Show is distributed by REACH Media Inc. which currently reaches an audience of over 12 million listeners, predominately African American, through radio, as well as digital media. Hughley, ready to take people on a no holds ride of humor and reality in the afternoons, stated, “I’m very excited to get back to radio and it couldn’t have come at a better time. I think radio fits my sensibility. I want to make people laugh a lot and think a little. Some people want to push the envelope – I want to see if I can singe it a little.”
Hughley established himself as a stand-up comedian propelling to stardom with the Original Kings of Comedy Tour and a subsequent movie release. He went on to have a hit television show, The Hughleys and has followed that up with a successful best-selling book, comedy specials and television appearances. Known for being astute and politically saavy in true comedian style, D.L. has served as host of his own talk show on CNN and TV One. The D.L. Hughley Show can be heard from 3-7pm on 105.3 RNB.
Comedian Hannibal has a knack for making the mundane funny. It’s this ability that landed him a brief writing gig for “SNL” and could help him with the pilot he’s co-writing with Jonah Hill. The young comedian performs at 8 p.m. at the Comedy Zone on Wednesday.
On Twitter, Hannibal describes his new pilot as half “Breaking Bad” and half “Storage Wars.” Although Hannibal only wrote for “SNL” briefly, he said the experience helped him focus his stand-up routines.
“Working on a show like that, it’s a high profile show,” he said. It’s a very different form of stand-up.”
He has a dry delivery of his observations on life, but strung together those observerations make great punchlines. His comedy has landed him on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Lopez Tonight, the Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
