In his first one-hour stand-up comedy special, Chris Redd returns to his hometown of St. Louis to highlight pivotal parts of his life that made him into the person he is today. Redd’s comedic stylings explore his days of living like Jay-Z’s “Big Pimpin’” music video, realizing he’d been chasing someone else’s dreams — the NBA, SNL, and becoming the next Notorious B.I.G., and how his therapist taught him that even if he’ll never be tall enough to dunk, he can still grow as a person.
