The FAQ Podcast follows Fuzzy and Quincy, two hip-hop heads who talk about their experiences in the entertainment industry since they were teenagers. They talk about current topics, music, and life from their very unique and funny perspective. In this week’s episode, Fuzzy and Quincy talk with comedian and actor Deray Davis. Making regular appearances on the hit TV shows “The Chi,” “Empire,” and “Snowfall,” Davis discusses what makes him different from other comedians, and he plays the “Hollywood” game.
