Bobby Sausalito is a Comedian, commentator and Internet personality most notably recognized on Instagram as @takenaps. His satirical videos about politics, the economy, current events, real estate, and other topics he covers have connected with a massive national audience craving the opportunity to laugh.

Some comedians have to dig deep for their material, or hire writers to feed them the funny stuff. Others, like Bobby Sausalito, do not. Bobby’s natural sense of humor, his quirky delivery, and relatable reactions to current events instantly connected with social media users.
For the past few years he’s been putting a comedic spin on stressful moments, allowing his audience the opportunity to see the funny side of otherwise unfunny moments.
Bobby didn’t plan on planting a flag in the territory of political satire. He joined social media platforms for recreational reasons, sharing memes and party pics with no real message.
His evolution into political satire is a result of him sharing a video expressing his feelings, and that video going viral.
When Bobby realized that people connected with the message, he made a few more videos. Those videos generated similar responses and today, Bobby has a hard-core fan base that has come to count on him for comic relief as well as pointed insight and even entrepreneurial advice.
In this episode of American Snippets, Bobby shares his story of how he found himself on this path, and the lessons his entrepreneurial success have taught him as well.
We recorded this the week before the Inauguration, when conspiracy theories were exploding online and the military was being called in by the tens of thousands to turn our capitol into a mocked-up combat zone.
