Coline Witt sits down with Damion Hall (also known as Damion “Guy” Hall)—producer, songwriter, and founding member of the legendary R&B group Guy for a powerful conversation about family, fame, finances, and survival.

While cooking Damion’s go-to broke meal, the “Turkey Slammer” sandwich (turkey, spinach, eggs, honey wheat bread, mayo, and seasoning), Damion shares how he left college at 17 to support his brother Aaron Hall and help build Guy—then realized he needed a niche beyond playing drums. He takes us back to early New York studio days with Teddy Riley, and the hard lessons that came with the music business.

Damion also opens up about trading on the New York Stock Exchange as a teen—including a devastating loss for his father’s firm—and breaks down what it really means to sign a “lock, stock, and barrel” contract. He also explains why artists must learn the business, stop chasing materialism, and protect their future.

Finally, he talks candidly about his 2023 stage-two prostate cancer diagnosis and blood clots, and how that fight pushed him to create his album Perfect Designer—'52 songs in 40 days', no samples—plus a personal studio story you won’t forget.

Coline Witt welcomes comedian, actor, and podcast host 'Clayton English' back to 'Eating While Broke' after their past cheap Chinese wings combo “fiasco.” They joke about fried rice, bottle and red Solo cup “measurements,” and broke-food hacks. Then, Clayton makes 'breakfast for dinner': instant cheese grits, rolled cheesy eggs, and budget turkey links.

Over the meal, Clayton opens up about growing up with a single mom who worked her way up at IBM, his dad being in and out, and how recurring “pancakes for dinner” nights were a clear sign money was tight. He shares how humor helped him early on, why he started stand-up in his mid-20s after college, and the breaks that helped shape his career—plus lessons from early financial missteps.

They also talk about Clayton’s comedy journey and credits, including 'Robert Townsend’s 'Partners in Crime', 'Who’s Got Jokes?', 'Tyler Perry’s 'House of Payne', winning 'Last Comic Standing', building his 'English Majors' podcast during the pandemic, upcoming voice work on 'Megan Thee Stallion’s anime', and why relationships and getting paid matter in entertainment.
