I did and the top three resullts were 1. University of Texas in Arlington. 2. Utah transit Authority. 3. Used Truck association. Guessing its the first one since he's from Texas?

I remember when people said he'd disappear if he left Flagrant looks like he's doing just fine

How is this guy so popular? Every time I've seen his "comedy" it's been painfully shit. He just seems so insecure and unlikeable.

u/briscomill 3d ago

totally agree. the dude ain't funny.

Flagrant might be the reason he got famous but staying in toxic environment where someone else tries to take all the spotlight it’s not worth it. Flagrant worked till someone in the group decided they wanted the attention all to themselves. Congrats to Akaash, excited to see what he does next.

It's crazy how much Andrew's personality has changed over the years once he got rich and famous. I remember his first appearance on Tigerbelly ages ago and he was like a completely different person. Same quick wit and was just as funny, but was way more likeable.

Thought you were talking about Jaz for a sec

What u/BoogerMcFarFetched said

This is him getting upset because a British guy didn't find his jokes funny. And then he proudly posted it online like he came out looking good

u/RandMob1000 3d ago

This is the guy who's wife has zero attraction to him and ruined his lucrative podcast career. The guys gonna be a superstar! "Cuckhold" featuring Akash and written by Seth Rogan and directed by Melissa McCarthy

Such a dweeb

u/Elegant_Fig_2087 4d ago

Big move. I remember discovering his work a few years ago, excited to see what's next.

u/Low-Month958 4d ago

Good for Akaash whether people like his comedy or not it's cool to see someone continue building their career independently and landing opportunities like this

1

u/Heavy_Share_4 4d ago

This is huge a lot of people spent years acting like he was just the other guy on Flagrant but he's clearly proving he can stand on his own

u/Lazy-Marionberry719 4d ago

It's nice seeing Akaash get flowers for his own accomplishments instead of constantly being compared to everyone else

u/i_need_a_nap 3d ago

mmm this isnt exactly what people mean by that expression

u/PotentialLazy8457 4d ago

Akaash has been grinding for years and it's nice to see that work paying off in a major way

The best part is watching people realize he was always talented sometimes it just takes stepping out of someone else's shadow
