This week, Ilana and I talked networking, anthropomorphic hedgehogs, and giving Whole30 a try.
What made you pursue a career in comedy?Probably the immediate financial return.
Humor was a huge crutch for me when I was little.
I simply love goofing around!
It didnt occur to me that it could be a career until college.
I do feel brave and comfortable saying that my first sexual feelings were for an anthropomorphic hedgehog.
Do you think social media has changed your humor in any way?
to my empty log cabin (does everyone enjoy this fantasy?)
but I didnt find I was performing live as much, and thats what I really enjoy.
Then maybe Ill condense that into a tweet.
If I want pasta in January, my ass is eating pasta in January probably multiple times, even.
Important note: I have made several other poor decisions since the one that inspired the tweet.
You host and produce a bunch of shows in addition to doing stand-up.
Which do you prefer?
What do you like about each?I dont know if I prefer one over the other.
What I love about stand-up is the autonomy and getting to do whatever I want.
Love when things are about ME.
You just never know who in the crowd was also sexually attracted to an anthropomorphic hedgehog.
and its fun getting to work with her on those.
Im also a firm believer in collaboration and that working with others makes your own work better too.
Tell us about your podcast,The Bop Pod!Ahh!The Bop Podis my favorite thing.
It is my crush, my boyfriend, and also somehow my child.
Outside of comedy, music has been another constant my entire life.
Weird, I know.
My Barbies were probably doing sex for very long amounts of time, now that I think about it.
Anyway, what was the question?
Oh yes, my podcast so music has always been something that Ive geeked out on.
With the podcast I really try and have the guest talk about those connections and emotional attachments.
We chat, we laugh, we watch music videos.
As the prophet Deena fromJersey Shoreonce said, its a blast in a glass.
Thank you for asking, I do consider myself a fun person.
I will forever be a shy gal at heart.
Whenever an event has a networking label tacked on to it, I want to run for the hills.
There is usually charcuterie, and if theres not Ive already left.
