 Um, guys, so like I told you we have amazing guests in studio, they are stand-up comedians and we are about to have a very, very fire conversation right now. But before atatuansi introduction, we'll just get to know their name. Juhi story alia onimoto-moto, we'll take their comments on our topic of the day today. So, Maena, introduce yourself. Hi. Hi, thank you so much for having us. You're welcome. Yeah, my name is Maena Munene, stand-up comedian, writer, satirist and overall awesome person. I like the overall awesome person. Yes, yes, that's very good. Yeah. Jack, introduce yourself. Thank you so much. Isn't that something you're living behind? You say in a comedian? Writer. Oh, and a medic. Okay, thank you for reminding me. Thank you. So, who would want to know, Maena? What do you think about ladies who do makeup? Na sosa utuambie? Uzu tuambie kama Maena? Uzu tuambie kama Maena the comedian? Maena the this. Inu'u. Tumika ma maina e mwenyewe Mwenyewa taftawef matire. Na fiel, nika ma life is too short to just tell people how to live their lives. If makeup makes you feel good about yourself, do makeup. So I'm all for do what makes you happy because life is too short. So, I think I'm into make up. If you want to do make up, do make up. If you don't want to do make up, then that's cool. It's not in my place to impose what I believe. Nakamini, majong, like, say ma itch ya beya. What is allowed in what extent? Team natural all the way. Like, kuna sura ingine, wacha yenda yifanyafanyu e mamboki dogo. Ndi opia yika e... Yena garage. Rejogu na sura reza kola wala hu sebemi ni team natural, nene niko, like, ah, I think... Oh God. ...tiga make up to kiasi tu. Jack, what do you like? What's your preference? About what? Make up. Ladies with make up. Ah, make up. Maybe make up to dogo, bene dijiya me sema. Kwa sa dijiya na sema make up to dogo, lakina nga liya desuki ya, ke bene kwa na make up. That's when I joined the Rambesha. I didn't know you were a Rambesha. Napia minim Kamba. Yeah, I wed him. Since when? I'm a little bit from Kamba. Since when? You're duke kwa matakutu, nye unibayonek. Yeah, but he was saying gine. He's too yellow, man. But the thing is, I think it depends on the lady. So, kama una penda make up. Monu wziweke make up. Nuna. But pihasa wzi overdu sana liya sana. Nuna, naja make up nika mamjengo. Yuki kuna foundation, kuna roofing. Like this, just a lot of things. But kama uko comfortable na yo, as a lady. Monu na nipoim. As an example, as an example. Miltitle must do foundation roofing. Nimefaya fe nya me explain kama ujengo. Nuna ipida foundation. Like, do you know? Kuna sura ina itazi fundi. Nakudia panye plata kidongo. So, ina nipi. Mani siya painting. You are not nice, by the way. You people are not nice. Laki ni nisa watu. Wacha wacha kubali. But anyway, so minor. Mimi na kujua. Laki na tukawam bie people what you do. Stand up, what is stand up comedy all about? And how long have you been doing stand up comedy? So I started doing stand up comedy on 9th December 2020. So that makes it really us. I know. Konini iko kuna ikumbuka zat vividly. Because it's like a thing that I like to do. And it's just like a card. Like, I know when that show was. But otherwise I have terrible, terrible memory. So that's like the only thing that I remember about my life. I think it will impact mzuri kwa sababu. In the course of the three years, nime perform internationally in Derisa Lam Tanzania na Harare Zimbabwe. So it's something that has given so much to me. So stand up means so much to me. Because it just like makes me a better person. Because it's an avenue for me to speak truth. My truth. So I've been doing it for three years. And it's been amazing. Okay, all right. What about you, Jack? For me, I think I started a bit late kiyogo. It was I think January 2021. But since the exact date I got it. January 2021. Yeah, January 2021. And it's been good. So that's like three years. Three years has been good. Improvement, kidogo. I think everything today. I'm not sure if it's a standard komet. It's something I like. And I enjoy it. How did you meet both of you? We have never met. You've met this guy here. We have never met. We have never met. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. When you're dealing with... Like how to do it, what to take seriously and what not to take seriously. So I don't know if you're confused. I don't know. I don't know. So I met you in Mbale. I came to you. I was in the interview. And then we decided to combine our interviews. No, but I personally can't remember the exact moment we met. But it was within... It was a stand-up comedy. And I was like, how bad is this comedian? I think I should help him become a better comedian. And that was the start of me mentoring this young man. And he has been learning. So you have been mentoring him? I... Nakusiria. He has been learning. He has been learning. Let's just hold it there that he has been learning. We take a short break. And then we come back. So yes, we are taking a short break. We are taking a short break. And then we will come back. We are back. And we left the conversation. Atmaina has been mentoring Jack. Nakatwingiza box. Nakatwingiza box. Akusiria. Sendo na se ma... I... I... Like at this point, Sijui watch takes seriously. And what not. No, it's not possible for me to lie on national TV. I'm a truthful man. Alright, Somaina. I think the last time we met, you were doing stand up comedy. Sana, sana. But I think over the year, I think it's been a year or a year and a half. I have seen you transition into more satirical comedy, like doing more skits and posting them online. So why did you make that change or shift into that direction? It is just in an effort to try and have more range because I realized that stand up comedy especially in Kenya is not as big. So if you want to reach more like a bigger demographic, then you need to go where the people are and the people are online. So I just like use the skills that I've learned from the stand up comedy part of it to write sketches, to do satire work and all these skits and then post and reach a bigger demographic in the hope that now we can transition that audience into stand up comedy. So that's like the long... That is the long game. Alright, so Jack. Yes. Ni point gani ulia cha. Okay, I don't know if you still practice medicine. Ya, I still do. Ini scrub. Allah. Mam trokazi. You are trokazi. Sa hi, sa hi kumdani ngodya. Dakelu, nzakwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa. Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa ya kwa interbu. Ita wami omani ataku wa tum pat. So tell us, like these are two very different things, medicine and stand up comedy. Like zinaengili anaji. How did you? Which came first? Of course medicine. But they are not too much for when you messema. Of course they say lapta is the best. Medicine, okay. So. But you say patanga, doctor, you think it's funny? No. So you have a bone. No, wait. So it's just something you balance between the two. Ya. But actually most of my materials and patanga from the experience thing, from the hospital and everything, because you guys are so funny when you come to the hospital with a lot of funny things. So upon you na pata matiyo, like come and refine kido kido go and inakwa tum matiyo lumsuri. Alright, how has the experience been? Experience which one? Stand up comedy. Oh, experience of course I have been having a good mentor here. Although too, I buy yangi lunch, but nesaw. Ya, ni atreo kazi utiana fukisha is by lunch. Imagine. Si po wa. Ah, doctor. But the experience has been good. Experience has been good. I can say what exactly about the experience now, Lisa, because Kavana stand up, you know like as a country, as in Kenya stand up a jagro because at any level where we want it to be. Ya. So as much as we have some challenges, but we are trying our best to push it if you care that level that you expect. Right. A minor is said that the long game is to like to transfer the audience from online to stand up comedy, you know, and come see you perform on stage and stuff like that. Ya. So you have an event coming. Tell us a bit about that. Ya. And you've been doing quite a lot of events. Ya man, I'm overworked and underpaid. So that's there. That's what we have to deal with as comedians and unfortunately as doctors in this country. But um, you picked a wrong, you picked a wrong, you picked two wrong careers. Being a doctor. I feel him chukubia da moji. Ya. He look well like. Ya. Na huku na huku. Nairobi. Nairobi. Daba doko Nairobi. Ya man, we have a show on the 9th of April. It's gonna be on a Tuesday. Yes, Tuesday. But the good news is that Wednesday is a holiday. So it's technically a Friday. So now Tuesday is Friday. Okay. So it's gonna be at the KO Craptral in Westland. KO is Kenyan original. So they have a beautiful gin bar at Delta Towers. Ya. And it's such an amazing idea because you can actually make your own gin and go home with it. Like I don't know how to explain how dope that idea is. So they give you the ingredients Kuhi na kiyia'y kaya. Kuna iso witu na piped. Inu na witu na chemistry. You're right. Unaunda gin nya kwa una taste. Alafu una ii bottle. And then you seal it. And they do like a special stamp and stuff. And you go home with it. Ya. So it's like an experience. Una itibtiyu. But when it came to illustrate the chemistry. I think to doanda pomba haramu. I know. I know So Jahu will also be performing Yes So tell us a bit about that as well and your expectations of that scene? Of course it's going to be a good show It's going to be a good show So if you want to see, you confirm it you can come over but I think first of all being like what do you call it? A collaboration with such a big brand Also it's a collaboration between you guys and the KO craft room So the KO craft room is run by Kenyan original They make really amazing saidas and also amazing gin So they want to venture into supporting their arts and now this show on Tuesday is the culmination of that conversation So our tickets are 1,000 shillings and the show starts at 7 up to 9.30pm Just 2 hours Yes just 2 hours So for the Kenyans who event in Anzanga 7 on Afikan 9 It's just Afikan 9 So what's your name? My name is Jini When do you make a joke? Oh God We're also trying to train our audience to be able to show up on time because in developed market you can have 3 shows in a night So we have like a 7pm show and a 9pm show So to kizuaishawa say show in hand and pack a late it means that we will be depriving ourselves of the opportunity to grow and expand in a way that I can do 2 or 3 shows in a night That's where we're headed That is how stand up comedy works Like you have shows from the 10th to the 10th In markets where they have a comedy club So in places like New York you can perform at 4 or 5 shows in one night But of course they have a proper transport system that moves you from point A to point B I don't think we're that lucky But if we put in the work maybe we'll get there So do you think you have been able to transfer the audience that you're talking about the people who see your kids will come to the event? They say they will come but we have to wait and see if we actually do Kenyans ah, ntakam bro Kamakura kitu nitafanya ntakuja yosho Umesama niti uze Niki niti uze niki ngawaja wasi Awakuji Ya, speaking of kukuja now that we have been good people and you wanna come and make some gin Are we getting tickets?
