Yeah, and it doesn't feel like I've been doing it that long, but it's just like I remember the shift.

And I was only like five years in.

And then the younger comics just wanted to hang out with.

And I was only five years in, so I knew I was still a baby.

Because I'm at shows talking to, you know, you're seeing, because the crazy thing about comedy is that you're very close to veterans very quickly.

As in, like, I met Margaret Cho when I was four or five years into comedy, which was crazy for me because she's the first comedian I remember seeing was Margaret Cho.

So the first comedian I ever saw was a woman of color, was a queer woman of color, was the first comic I remember watching.

And so I remember when she introduced herself to me, I was just sitting in the green room like, hello.

And then she walked out.

I was like, ah.

Because I started the next, because she was doing Drop Dead Divas at the time in Atlanta.

And she saw me a couple days later.

She was at the comedy club.

And she goes, hi, Dolce.

And I was like, hello.

And I went in the bathroom.

I was like, Marla Jones.

But you can't be a complete jackass in person.

In person, you have to go.

Hello, Margaret Cho.
