Comedian Robert Powell III is an easy going guy with a smooth comedy style like no other. He’s also pretty skinny, so skinny that Tom had to know if he gained any weight since the last time they met up.
“I couldn’t wait to come back up here to let everybody know that I’m officially 142,” said Powell proudly. “I’ll trade you my metabolism for that private jet. If I just got to give it away for something.”
Powell has the amazing opportunity of not only being on FX’s Atlanta Robbin Season but to have an entire episode written for him by Donald Glover!
“My episode comes out March 29. I got really really really really lucky,” expressed Powell. “Donald Glover was actually watching my HBO Def Jam set and he wrote an entire episode of me.”
Be sure to catch Powell in the March 29 episode of Atlanta Robbin Season and at the Addison Improv if you’re in town March 18.
