Join me for an incredible conversation with Syed, an immigrant who overcame huge obstacles to become a successful comedian and salesman - all while dealing with shocking sleepwalking!

We go from discussing his wild journey from Saudi Arabia to Pakistan to Texas and more, to talking about how he fought deportation after 9/11 to build a corporate career in Canada. Syed then opens up about how he got into stand-up comedy and his struggles to keep performing amidst global tragedies like the Israel-Palestine conflict.

The revelation of his intense, "Exorcist-style" sleepwalking and how cannabis helps provide relief makes for a fascinating listen!
