Odyssey with Yendi: Oliver Samuels- Lighthearted, Hilarious, Relatable! Jamaica's King of Comedy!

[@susanpitter3154]

Mr Samuels has done more for the Diaspora then we can imagine. The laughter and connection with our heritage have been much needed medicine for our souls and well being. Thank you Oliver! 🖤💛💚

Yendi Your interviews are like an interesting dinner party. I am so well fed after each one, I usually have a glass of wine to complete the meal. Keep up the great work. Love Oliver and love you.

[@Plusty07]

Oliver Samuels is a national treasure, and I cannot help but to the smile from ear to ear, as he pontificates in the Jamaican vernacular. What a genuinely warm person, and an individual who loves life and love others. Thank you Oliver for your contribution to the Jamaican language, our art form, and our culture.

Happy New Day filled with much love and respect to you both especially Mr Samuels. He said something that resonated with me which is he never knew they were poor. I grew up with my grandparents and 11children including uncles and aunts. Happy as a child not wanting . Then one aunt came foreign and stayed at my home and reminiscing this is when she told me we were not that well off to which astonished me because we never cried saying we are hungry. There was always three meal daily top with all the fruits that were in season and we had every fruit tree on the land. Too much to mention. Mr Samuels than you for your gifted contributions, filled with laughter. You are well loved our brother. As long as you are gifted with life all the best Mr funny man 😍😍😍 Jah love and blessings. Thank you Yendi. Blessings, love and light.
