Comedian and 5150 Show host Corey Holcomb joins VladTV for a candid conversation about his Chicago roots, family history, and life inside the Robert Taylor Homes in Illinois. Holcomb reflects on being raised by a single mother, learning about half-siblings through his father’s side, and his blunt views on relationships, family structure, and survival. The discussion turns to the massive South Side housing development—once among the largest public housing projects in the United States and the world—with 28 high-rise buildings, 4,400 units, and roughly 27,000 residents. Corey pushes back on one-sided portrayals of the projects, acknowledging poverty, violence, and tragedy while emphasizing the good people and community that existed there. He also reacts to stories involving the Chicago Housing Authority and explains how consequences, respect, and neighborhood codes shaped life in Robert Taylor Homes.
