概要

 In this episode of Founder Podcast, we sit down with a guest who defies every category. Gary Phillips Jr. is a poet, comedian, musician, author, and the force behind Lil Gary’s World. Hailing from East Texas, Gary describes himself as a "one-of-a-kind" talent whose career began not in a boardroom, but at a family fish fry where he decided it was finally time to chase his dream of being a comedian.Gary’s journey is a masterclass in resilience and authenticity. He opens up about balancing single fatherhood with his artistic ambitions, working 28 years at Rusk State Hospital, and finding humor in the hardest moments—from running out of gas in Dallas to surviving heartbreak. We discuss his unique "Poemsic" style (a blend of poetry and music), his viral-ready anthem "Raise Your Glass," and his candid, often hilarious take on business, innovation, and handling "haters."

Tune in to hear Gary discuss:
  • The Unconventional Start: How a question from his kids at a fish fry launched his comedy career.
  • The "Poemsic" Innovation: Why critics are calling him the love child of Snoop Dogg and Eminem.
  • Resilience in Action: How he turned personal struggles into a 3-book deal and a library of 200+ songs.
  • Unique Business Strategies: His hilarious (and surprisingly poignant) approach to risk-taking.
