Stand-up Comedy w/ Ali Kolbert – Ep. 91

We invited the HILARIOUS Ali Kolbert (The Tonight Show
Starring Jimmy Fallon) to come and dyke out about stand-up comedy,
but it quickly turned into a roast. Carolyn gives a quick recap of
her trip to Peru, or at least her understanding of it. Then, Ali
calls out Sarah’s most problematic behavior: refusing to watch
queer tv. So instead we talk about Big Little Lies, one of our
favorite straight-people topics. Eventually we get to talking about
being a queer stand-up comic, including performing in queer spaces
and talking about our sexuality to straight audiences. We only
scratch the surface, but hopefully it’s enough to give you an idea
of what it’s like out there for queer women in comedy. Maybe we
could have covered more, but Ali and Sarah were having too much fun
with the sadder details of Carolyn’s past relationships. -Come see
