Canada’s FUNNIEST Young Comedian! | Neema Naz

Finneran's Wake

Neema Naz is a comedian, an actor, and the creator of The Estupid Club and NeemaNazTV.

This conversation–my first with a REAL, card-carrying comedian–was an absolute delight!

Of course, if you’re among his quarter-million followers on Instagram, this will come as no surprise; Neema is not only an immensely talented actor, but a refreshingly candid person.

In this episode, Neema and I discuss:

His origin story; the role of his parents (who immigrated to Canada from Iran) in his life; beginning and sustaining a successful business with his brother; the advantages of standing astride two cultures; growing up in Toronto; growing out and cutting his hair; his comedic role models; his education and training as an actor; the benefits to his “brand”, and the detriments to his health, of being “bigger-boned”; the hostility of the age to comedy and free speech; censorship online; his impressions; the feeling of seeing his name on a marquee; his ambitious plans for the future; and MORE!
