Comedian and actor Deon Cole stops by HOT97’s Mornings with Mero to talk about Season 2 of Average Joe (now on Paramount+), his acting range from playing Don King in the Michael biopic to The Color Purple, doing his own stunts, executive producing, and staying true to himself in Hollywood.
Deon opens up about his longtime friendship with Kanye West — including a wild night eating Popeye’s chicken at Ye’s house after the Vultures concert with zero mention of the show — and shares lessons learned from working alongside Adam Sandler on their new film Run the Street. He also discusses why he’s planning a clean comedy special in honor of his late mother, his stand-up writing process, and the importance of never changing your “swing.”
Plus: Deon and Mero go off on an unforgettable tangent about apple picking in the Northeast. You don’t want to miss this one.
