Episode Details

From being the face of Old Spice, to Black-ish, to Conan, to touring around the country... Deon Cole is everywhere.

Deon tracks his career, from not even knowing he was funny... to performing on Conan and immediately earning himself a job there... to the "awkward" through-line of all his characters. He also memorializes his mother, recounting her love and support of him and why he named his special, "Charleen's Boy," after her. With Dan, Deon explores his grief, and feeling her presence during the performance.

Deon's latest Netflix special, "Ok, Mister" is streaming now, and you can watch "Average Joe" on BET+. Visit deoncole.com for upcoming tour dates and tickets.
