Willie Barcena: I Gotta Be Honest

In his second hour-long stand-up special, “I Gotta Be Honest,” Willie Barcena elevates his two decades of comedy experience by addressing the everyday American man through personal tales. He shares his journey through anger management, his efforts to comprehend and embrace various religions, the challenge of accepting his wife’s departure, his attempts to reconcile with her, and his endeavor to raise his three sons to be genuine men. All of this is delivered with sharp wit and humor, reflecting his identity as a Mexican American from Boyle Heights.
