A giant among comedians

Anyone else a fan of Brad Williams?

I assumed you were bringing him up because he died. I hadn't heard of him, and that's the long (I'm sure he's longer than I) and the short (hey, who am I calling short?) of it.

Brad is married to a 5 foot 6 half Chinese half white woman who is a serious mixed martial artist, having studied for 18 years. Brad says he is in a mixed marriage… My wife is half Chinese, I'm half.

They met when they matched on a website for people looking for threesomes. The other woman that matched with them didn't show up for the date, but the two of them went out and hit it off. They continued to have threesomes for a fairly long time after their marriage. They have a six-year-old daughter who is also a little person. Brad is the only little person in his family; his father is 6 foot two and athletic…  when my mom got pregnant he expected her to give birth to a football player; instead she shot out… A football!

Brad does a podcast called heightened babble with one of his best friends, JB Ball, a 6 foot three black comedian; they have some interesting perspectives on things sometimes, having had such similar lives.

I think he's pretty brilliant at this. Star presence on camera, for sure. Great timing in delivery.

I took your statement to mean, he had recently died.

For the record, he’s alive and well:
