"Transitions" With Tony Baker | The Underground Lounge S2 E.29

Author: THEORY COMMUNICATIONS May 28, 2025 Duration: 1:41:53

In this laugh-filled episode of the Underground Lounge, Lou Williams and Spank Horton sit down with comedian, actor, and viral voiceover star Tony Baker. Repping the South Side of Chicago, Tony brings his signature humor as the trio dives into everything from career beginnings to wild travel stories.

Tony shares how his acting dreams led him to stand-up, recounting early grind days, audition fails, and his breakout on Last Comic Standing. He opens up about life on the road, dodging TSA mishaps, and even being handed guns on arrival during an international gig — all delivered with Tony’s hilarious take.

The conversation shifts to dating, BBLs vs. natural bodies, and the truth about first-date expectations. They take a nostalgic trip back to the BET Uncut era, unpack Tony’s viral rise through animal voiceovers, and the challenges of social media and copyright drama.

Rounding out the episode, they get real about growth, accountability, road rage stories, and why sometimes the biggest flex is knowing when to apologize. Tony also talks hometown pride, his love for Chicago sports, and a dream to make a low-budget classic comedy.

Funny, honest, and full of stories you won’t hear anywhere else — this one’s a must-listen.
