"Humor is a way to deal with failure, because you'll be onto something much bigger. Nothing is the defining moment of your life \u2014 if you don't let it be.\u201d

Did you know that several P&G Alumni have become (inter)nationally known stand up comedians? In honor of World Laughter Day (May 1st), we decided to go deeper and chat with not one, not two, but THREE P&G alumni who are now full-time in the world of comedy \u2014 Greg Warren, Josh Sneed, and Rajiv Satyal. And if you count P&G Alumni Podcast co-host Drew Tarvin as a \u201cHumor Engineer\u201d - consider it 3.5 P&G Alumni Comedians. We want to learn about life as a creative entrepreneur, how humor applies to work, and how a business mindset can help anyone in their passion project - because when comedy is your day job, it\u2019s no joke. Our guests for this very special (and funny) episode...
