George and Paco visit Baron Vaughn in Los Angeles to talk about his new documentary Fatherless (2017, Dawn Porter). We learn about Baron's upbringing, his relationship with his mom, therapy, Boston comedy, being on Marc Maron's show, his ideas about masculinity, and the statistical baggage attached to being African-American and fatherless.

The documentary includes appearances from Rain Pryor, Open Mike Eagle, and Lil Rel Howery. It's available on Fusion TV and Amazon Prime.

Baron Vaughn is a series regular on Netflix’s Grace & Frankie in the role of “Bud” with 3 seasons currently streaming. He is the voice of "Tom Servo" in the new Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return also streaming on Netflix. Baron has performed on Comedy Central in his own Half Hour, as well as an appearance on The Meltdown. He performed on Showtime's SXSW Comedy, Conan (twice), and the now defunct Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. He will be on the upcoming Comedy Central show Corporate. Baron has two comedy recordings, Raised by Cable and Blaxistential Crisis, both available on AST Records.
