Being Original with Badar - Episode 64 w/ Badar Tareen
1h 16m · PublishedWe talk originality, raising the steaks and nostalgia this week with Badar Tareen. It was a great chat where we lament having to leave our little ones to chase our dreams. It super fun and you should give it a listen. Badar Tareen is a civil rights lawyer by day and an award-winning stand-up comedian by night. Badar’s comedy can be described as analytical, energetic, and unique, hitting many different audiences given Badar’s day job and background as a Pakistani Muslim who grew up in a small town in North Dakota. He has frequently opened for Zarna Garg and other comedians like Akaash Singh, Tony Woods, and Marcello Hernandez. Badar has been selected to performed at over a dozen comedy festivals such as the Dubai Comedy Festival and performed at clubs throughout the US, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. He currently runs BrownTown Comedy, the largest South Asian comedyshow in the DC area—every show sells out. Based in Virginia with his wife, a doctor at Johns Hopkins, and their spirited son, Badar continues to captivate audiences with his sharp wit and engaging presence.

--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/blerddadpodcast/supportBlerdDads Assemble! - Episode 55 w/ David Betancourt
1h 7m · PublishedHAPPY NEW YEAR and welcome back! I do my best Batman impression after losing my voice over the New Year weekend but its perfect for my guest. Former Washington Post writer David Betancourt. We discuss the amazing contributions he's made to comic book culture including the new Edge of Spiderverse. We also take a stroll down memory lane when I was fast and not fat. It was a great convo covering so much so give it a listen will ya. David Betancourt is a four-time Eisner Award nominee and former Washington Post Comic Riffs blog writer. As a child, David Betancourt was mesmerized by the adventures of characters like Iron Man, Captain America, and the Black Panther. Those early fascinations turned into a love for reading graphic novels and, eventually, a career writing about the very heroes that ignited his imagination. He has written about all aspects of comic book culture for the Post and his lifelong passion has resulted in the Marvel graphic novel “Edge of the Spider-Verse #3” and the newly-released book "The Avengers Assembled: The Origin of the Earth's Mightiest Heroes.” Betancourt's book is not just a retelling of the Avengers' tale. This in-depth exploration uncovers defining moments and the evolution of Marvel's premiere Super Hero team. It's a unique biographical take to the formation, lineup changes, and the introductions of fan-favorite characters. With "The Avengers Assembled", Betancourt brings iconic characters to life and offers a fresh perspective on familiar heroes through meticulous research and vivid writing. https://www.mahoganybooks.com/9780744081640 https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/edge-of-spider-verse-dan-slott/1141586029 Follow David: X - @adcfanboy on X IG - @DavidBetancourtWrites Watch The Blerd Dad Podcast!
