In this age of the Internet, if you are going to go see someone, you usually look them up first. It can be an advantage and disadvantage. Most of the time, people can Google you and see a couple clips and say, ‘Oh I am going to go.’ They can kind of co-sign off on you. Baron Vaughn Read Quote
I think any good standup or actor is part philosopher, part psychologist and sociologist, because you’re constantly recreating behaviors. Baron Vaughn Read Quote
Here’s the best place that people can find me: go to this website called Google, and then type my name into it. So much stuff. Baron Vaughn Read Quote
I grew up on a very specific diet of certain weird movies. Of course, being black, there are more black movies in there. I’ll get to bring some of those references into ‘Mystery Science Theater 3000.’ Baron Vaughn Read Quote
I’ve always been a big fan of entertainment. Having cable gave me access to HBO, Showtime, and The Movie Channel. Constantly taking in all these films from different eras and different styles has really given me a good vocabulary in how to talk about movies. Baron Vaughn Read Quote
I’m a big fan of PlayStation 4. I like watching movies, TV shows, comedy specials, and listening to comedy albums and music. I’m also a big fan of getting coffee with a friend or catching up on the phone with people I’ve known for years, people who keep me grounded, who knew me before. Baron Vaughn Read Quote
I had a gentleman steal or ‘misplace’ – I guess I should say ‘allegedly’ – a lot of money from me. It didn’t make any sense when it was happening, because I just didn’t understand why I didn’t have any money. I was a perfect mark because I had all of this shame and insecurity about money.

I don’t mean to make a generalization, but I do at the same time, from what I know about people from the Midwest, it seems like their families would talk about money openly in front of them when they were kids. They’d say stuff like, ‘We’re broke! We’re gonna lose the house!’ Baron Vaughn Read Quote
Every podcast network has a different culture as far as I can tell. How they run things at Nerdist is totally different than how they run things at Earwolf is totally different than All Things Comedy or Maximum Fun or Feral Audio. And it’s different if it’s independent. Baron Vaughn Read Quote
I’m waiting for some studio to be like, ‘Look, we need you to be totes buff.’ ‘I’m sorry, what’d you say?’ ‘Totes buff. We’re gonna get you a trainer.’ And I’m like, ‘Oh, awesome! I’ve been waiting for this moment.’ I would love to get in shape for a reason besides my own health and life. Baron Vaughn Read Quote
