Show Notes
Comedian Vic DiBitetto joins Shawna and LaLa on Life Beyond The Mic for a hilarious and honest conversation about comedy, everyday frustrations, and the moments in life that everyone can relate to. The girls first share highlights from the Modern Day Wife event, where they sat down with longevity coach Erica Hollingdrake Weir to talk about the habits that can help people live longer, healthier lives and why small changes can make a big impact over time. Then the laughs kick in when Vic DiBitetto joins the show ahead of his March 7th performance at Bergen PAC in Englewood, NJ. Vic talks about the everyday things that drive people crazy, the frustrations of modern technology, and how those moments often become the inspiration behind his comedy. The conversation also turns to the real star of some of Vic’s viral videos, his famous cat Eddie, a fan favorite who has stolen the spotlight more than once. In one of the funniest moments of the interview, Vic also finds out LaLa is 40 and can’t believe it. Between the laughs and stories, the girls quickly decided Vic might just be their new “Uncle Vic”.

Is LaLa cursed, or is the universe playing one seriously twisted joke on her?! LaLa's been walking around with a black cloud over her head, and things just keep getting weirder! After a car accident landed her in an ambulance and the ER, she experienced something even more traumatic than the accident itself. Between being treated as a trauma patient and receiving a hospital ID bracelet identifying her as "Devils Thirty One," age 117, with the numbers 666, things took a bizarre turn. Just when she thought it couldn't get any stranger, her grocery bill came to exactly $6.66! And the cashier's reaction when LaLa explained her recent bad luck? You won't believe it!
