Co-hosted by NBA champion Iman Shumpert and his brother, Ahrii, the podcast promises raw and unapologetic conversations, featuring never-before-told stories and insights from an array of culturally influential guests.
On Iman Amongst Men, nothing is off-limits.
In this week’s episode, New Yorker actor and comedian Tony Rock joins Iman and Ahrii Shumpert to discuss his comedy career, mentors, his favorite movie role and why he no longer eats drumsticks anymore.
Rock was a co-star on CBS’s comedy Living Biblically, co-starring with Jay Ferguson, Lindsey Kraft, Camryn Manheim, and Sara Gilbert.
Rock has appeared on radio and television shows including The Howard Stern Show and The D’Angelo Show. He performed in New York with Mark Curry and John Henton to highlight the Apollo Theater. He co-starred as Dirk Black on the UPN/The CW sitcom All of Us. Rock has often worked as a back-up to his brother Chris, and appeared on the latter’s sitcom Everybody Hates Chris in the recurring role of the title character’s uncle Ryan. Chris’s fictitious brother Drew from the show is loosely based on Tony. Rock has hosted The Funny Spot on TV One.
Rock starred in his own sketch comedy TV series, The Tony Rock Project, which was broadcast on MyNetworkTV from 2008 to 2009. On February 19, 2010, Comedy Central aired Tony Rock’s feature on Season 14 of Comedy Central Presents. His episode was the first original of the 2010 season.
In 2012, Rock appeared in Think Like a Man, a feature film based on Steve Harvey’s 2009 book Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man. In the same year, Rock appeared in David E. Talbert’s What Goes Around Comes Around and began hosting Apollo Live on BET.
