\u201cIt's unfortunate because the truth is right there \u2014 and at this point we're just pretending to be asleep.\u201d\nTehran Von Ghasri\xa0is a comedian, actor, tv/radio/podcast host, and activist. Tehran is many things - half iranian, half black, half amazingly nerdy and amazing. As a comic he\u2019s a mix of Dave Chappelle and Stephen Colbert meet Maz Jobrani. He\u2019s actually co-hosts \u201cBack to School with Maz Jobrani\u201d - which is how we met. Tehran\u2019s got roots in DC + LA. He\u2019s a A Laugh Factory favourite, and has been seen on Netflix, FOX, Bravo, Pivot, Comedy Central, the Kennedy Center, and a sold out show near you. There\u2019s a saying - good comics make you laugh, great comics make you think. Tehran is NO exception to that. Fair warning, with Sharon out, Raman\u2019s flying solo so you\u2019ll hear some nerding out down many many tangents and rabbit holes,\nLEARN ABOUT TEHRAN\n\niamtehran.com\n\ntwitter.com/iamtehran\n\ninstagram.com/iamtehran\n\nMENTIONS\n\nCOMIC: Mike E.
