Today on another encore edition of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we talk with Rain Pryor, daughter of the great comedian, writer and actor Richard Pryor. When you talk about stand-up comedy, Richard Pryor is a shoe-in to be on the Mount Rushmore of stand-up comedians. To this day, the legacy and humor Richard Pryor left behind is second to none and we talk about that with Rain along with much more.
Like her father, Rain does not pull punches and she doesn’t have an issue speaking her mind. We speak about race, religion, her Jewish mother, her Madam grandmother, her recent ascent into higher education, how ‘ho’s gotta eat too!’ as we discuss a wide range of topics. Along the way we learn about her scientist mother, how Rain had been to host Josh Mills’ house and he didn’t even know it, the chilly relationship she has with one of her father’s ex-wives, her many siblings, her dad’s drug use, her own search for normalcy and her years as a stand-up and actor in Hollywood.
Rain was a refreshing and wonderful interview and it was a huge thrill to talk to her as we REALLY wanted to talk to her for a very long time. So glad we got to and all you have to do is keep listening to the Rarified Heir Podcast like you are already to hear our conversation with Rain. Another child of a celebrity interviewed by the child of a celebrity. Everyone has a story.
