Welcome to Comedy is the Cure, the podcast where real-life medical mishaps meet big laughs!
This show proves that laughter truly is the best medicine, hosted by Taquita Love—a nurse by day and stand-up comedian by night.
She is someone who knows that healing isn’t just about medicine—it’s about laughter, too. By combining her medical expertise and comedy chops, she’s bringing joy and education to audiences everywhere.
Taquita Love: Hailing from Chicago, IL, Taquita Love is just what the doctor ordered. With her expertise as a Registered Nurse, she prescribes and administers comedic relief for the soul. Taquita has been featured on Funny or Die and Laughs on FOX. The graduate of Second City LA and UCB LA (Improv and Sketch Writing) takes you on a journey into her world with her refreshing and brilliant storytelling style, and her play on words will have you experiencing withdrawals. She’s not your average Nurse. She is not your average comedian. She is just what the Doctor Ordered!
If you’ve ever wondered how comedy and healthcare collide, this episode has all the answers wrapped in wit and wisdom!
This week, Taquita is joined by comedian and writer Rob Haze.
You’ve seen his comedy on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Late Late Show with James Corden, and Comedy Central. But did you know he’s also written for Sherman’s Showcase, South Side, The ESPYs, and The Roast of Tom Brady? If you watched the 2024 BET Awards, you’ve already seen his work in action. Plus, his comedy special Frontin’ is out now, showcasing his signature storytelling and sharp wit.
From Stand-Up to TV, Rob Haze shares his journey from the grind of open mics to writing for some of the biggest platforms in comedy. Rob suffered through the worst pain of his life after a foot injury left him bleeding everywhere—only for the EMT to tell him he was fine. He also discusses podcasting, the struggle to stay relevant in the comedy industry, and hip-hop’s lean phase.
