Black in CDMX: Comedy, Visas and Building Community

If you've been thinking about Mexico City, this is the episode you need. Joc sits down with Mark, Founder and CEO of VisaMapAI and a key member of the Move CDMX team, and they get into everything: what it's really like being Black in CDMX, the comedy scene Mark is literally building from the ground up, Art Week, the Kanye concert that had the city buzzing, and even watching the Super Bowl halftime show from Mexico. Mark shares how he turned a potluck in his home into Comedy Kickback and eventually booked KevinOnStage, a comedian from the U.S., to perform in CDMX. He breaks down how VisaMapAI helps you find better visa options beyond the H-1B with personalized recommendations in minutes. They talk about navigating life abroad, building real community in one of the hottest expat destinations right now, and why CDMX has become a hub for Black travelers and digital nomads looking to live their best lives. Whether you're stuck in visa limbo, planning your move, or just CDMX curious, this conversation will give you the real talk and the tools you need to make your next move. Stop dreaming and start planning because the community is already there waiting for you.
