1:39Now PlayingThe comedian Druski reflected on growing up in a racially diverse suburb and learning how to code switch. "I always was a very visual learner, trying to figure out, oh, why is this person like this? Why is that person like that?” he explained to Popcast's Jon Caramanica and Joe Coscarelli.
Plus, he discussed learning the "white classics" (like "Don't Stop Believin'" and songs by The Beatles) at summer camp, and how these cultural experiences shaped his approach to comedy.
