Gary Owen sits down with VladTV for a candid conversation about the ongoing fallout between Vlad and Aries Spears, including the dispute over pay, YouTube revenue, Boosie comparisons, missed phone calls, and whether VladTV helped boost Spears’ stand-up career. Owen weighs in as a “voice of reason,” addressing both sides of the disagreement while discussing how comedy bookings, club dates, and viral stand-up clips shape a comedian’s value.
The interview also turns to a controversial claim that Aries Spears refuses to perform with Black opening comedians. Owen says he has heard the same thing and explains the possible headliner logic behind controlling who opens a show, while making clear the issue is complicated. The conversation touches on Vince McMahon-style promotion, DJ Akademiks’ advice, hip-hop references like Canibus’ “Second Round K.O.,” and comedy venues from Des Moines Funny Bone to Radio City Music Hall.
