Growing up with traditional Yemeni parents, though, Ahmed Al-kadri was expected to make his way through school, get a degree, have a stable job — and, of course, get married. Betting on himself, he left it all behind, and moved to Los Angeles to hit the stand-up scene with full force. This week, Hamza sits down with this up-and-coming comic about the ins and outs of his new world, making it in one of America’s toughest cities, and how he manages to make hundreds of thousands laugh every day.
