Arturo is a great storyteller and comedian. He has the ability to talk about some VERY heavy topics (childhood trauma, addiction, homelessness) with such ease. He takes you on a very personal journey that keeps you hooked wanting to know what will happen next. I felt all the feels. Even with such a heavy subject you find yourself laughing through it because of his great comedic timing. The show flows so well between the different stages of his life. It is very well structured and produced. This show is a good reminder and depiction of perseverance. I really admired his strength and vulnerability in sharing the deepest parts of himself.
