<p>In the ring, if you’re not prepared, you won’t survive. Today’s guest, Michael Che, prepared himself on the streets of New York—selling t-shirts out of a duffle bag, grinding at open mics, and hustling his way into network television. What started as hustling t-shirts on Prince Street—where one day he’d make $40 and the next, $1,000—turned into a relentless pursuit of comedy. A chance encounter led him to <em>SNL</em>, where he quickly realized, “This is literally Harvard for comedy production.” Now, as the co-anchor of <em>Weekend Update</em>, Che is still in the fight, delivering knockout jokes every Saturday night.</p><br><p><br></p><p>CREDITS</p><p>Executive Producers: Dave Chappelle, Radio Rahim, Noah Gersh, Jamie Schefman, Nick Panama, Kenzi Wilbur, Elliot O’Dea</p><p>Music & Sound Design: SALT Audio</p><p>Creative Producer: Alex Casnoff</p><p>Head of Production: Liz LeMay</p><p>Head of Engineering: Jordan Galvan</p><p>Production Manager: Allie Strobel</p><p>Post Coordinator: Alice Bearn</p><p>Edited by: Geoffrey Mutchnik</p><p>Mixed by: SALT Audio</p><p>Additional Editing & Sound Design: Jasper van Dijk & Noah Kowalski</p><p> </p><p>Til This Day is a Luminary Original Podcast in partnership with Pilot Boy Productions and SALT Audio.</p>
