Bill and Deon, I want to say thank you for sharing this and being real. Because my mom passed away and I still have my moments from time to time. I really appreciate you all. God bless you!!!🙏
@@breakbeatmedia I really enjoyed when Deon said he was cool with his career evolving like a slow cooking pot roast because many of us think we’re supposed to make it almost immediately. Appreciated his honesty
Deon's special def resonated with me. I can relate to that type of loss plus I also an only child. Doing that special took strength because even after more than a decade after losing my mom I still get choked up.
Omg I'm from the Chi and almost 50 and i remember most of those comedians from the Chi Deon named and those comedy clubs 🔥🔥. Those were the days i miss old Chicago it was way better..
GIRLLLL THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING, BOTH OF MY COMEDY CRUSH SINCE THE 90'S. MY LITTLE FAST ICE EVEN HAD A BOYFRIEND I GOT WITH SIMPLY BECAUSE HE LOOK LIKE SEXY BELLAMY 🙃
I love Deon The funniest skit I seen him do with Conan o'Brien was when they had Soul Food in the hood. I still play that one just for laughs. Thank you Deon and everytime you share your story about your Mother I cry because its heartfelt. I love your comedy style because you don't over do it and it stays the same calm energy.
Yesss!!! Thank you Deon Cole& Bill Bellamy for sharing those words regarding making your lost ones live on through a password or business name, etc… I’ve been doing this with my first born I lost a few years ago and I thought I was holding on to her but you made me realize I’m keeping her spirit alive!!! Thank you!!! ❤❤❤
Great interview!! Man when Deon explained the reason why he named his special, I got hit with a ball full of emotion. Like Bill said so many gems in this convo! "Take you with you!!"
Love Love Love this interview. My No. 1 of Top Billin' interviews. I love Deon Cole's personality, comedy, acting and every-single-thing about him. He is a Top 10 comedian. This interview was hilarious. Thank you Bill Bellamy for always spreading joy and making us laugh.
I really appreciate brothers like Deon and Bill. These are good people who are open with being vulnerable and showing emotion which is the examples more people need to see. Wishing them gentlemen blessings for sharing and being what looks like great role models/examples.
More thanks, admiration, respect, affection for laughts and the thoughts an the memories, than words can say. Thank you all for sharing your gift with us.
Excellent interview! I am old enough to remember all the references from back in the day, day. Both of your are funny as hell from day one! Deon is a genius. He is such a thinker and intelligent with his comedy if you not present when he drop something it will go right pass you. He will have you thinking and paying more attention to the world around. Gems without questions were definitely dropped and Bellamy asked great questions. Sincere condolences to Deon. I saw that special and how he ended it was sobering for every single person whether in the audience or watching at home. A beautiful human moment. Thank you Bill for having him as a guest! Blessings✊✌💫
TRUST...Charleen's Boy hit DIFFERENT. As someone who had recently lost their Mom, and is her only child, that special showed how exceptionally talented Deon is. I OVERstand about having to push thru. My Mom died at the end of Jan 2020, then pandemic showed up 6 wks later. As a frontline worker, I didn’t have the luxury of time to wallow in bereavement. Thank u Bill for this particular guest interview.
Deon Cole is an interesting brother. Loved seeing him and Bill chop it up and pull some of the layers back. I agree that his special was needed to help him and the audience grasp with the loss of loved ones. My Mom has been gone 40 years and I always learn about ways to cope and express myself. Much love to both of these brothers. ❤
This episode was 🔥. Intelligence and the awareness of the favor of God on your lives is so evident here ❤ Thank you both for taking the time to do this interview ❤ Beautiful Black Magazine is here for it ❤
When I tell you this was one of thee most powerful n profound interviews. Keep up the good work both of you guys. I really loved Deon's very simple yet profound statement abt " take that person u see in the mirror with you" and Bill's profound statement abt how he realized he was manifesting out of thin air. Man n Deon just droppin gems! Salute to u two bruthas! ✊🏾
Deon Cole is very genuine person. Funny, talented and unique. Watching Average Joe right now and hoping to see him at a comedy club soon. Bill Billamy legend! Great podcast.
The Peppermint Lounge “Thursday Nights!!!” I traveled from the BX to be in the place and among other related Golden Era business. Dang, I can’t believe it’s been over 30 yrs… #AriesSeasonnext 🎉🎊🙏🏾❤️
51:31 Deon’s special really brought “specials” back to a more respectable level. We’ve all seen some specials that left you feeling like, ok that was Hot 🥵 Garbage!!! Deon’s pen 🖊️ game is on another level comedically speaking. When he said in his special that taking a thick chick to the hood is hella stressful, I fell out!!! DC is the truth, much respect ✊🏾
I’m glad I found my boy again I remember Bill Bellamy ground from DEF comedy jam. I’m glad you bring everybody back on the spot light god bless and keep up the good work
BILL!! What a great first show to see. I didn't know you had a podcast. Great interview with Deon Cole. He dropped some gems. I took notes: 1) TAKE YOU, WITH YOU; 2) EVEN IN THE DARKEST OF TIMES FIND A WAY TO "HONOR" THE PERSON YOU LOSS.
@@breakbeatmedia 1. Cook at your own pace, it’s okay to simmer. 2. If you don’t accept you for you, nobody else will. 3. Talk last in a room full of people and repeat what we said so you don’t have to reveal anything about yourself.
(Deon) That would be a dope show or concept. Everybody watch the same “event” and then come up with a gig/set in “real time” about what they just witnessed. And whoever was the most creative wins 😊
