Yeah, I took Instagram off my phone and my social media team looks at it. So I think social media, especially as a comic, should be a one way street. Like I do the output, but we're closed for the feedback because it's At 42, we know the compliments and the insults are always regenerating. So I'll just avoid those for the time being.

You know, as a mother of two, I just turned 42. I think this comedy is all about giving people a really good time. You know who I am when you sign up to come see my show, you know that you're gonna get a little bit of insight wrapped in comedy, but I think we're all kind of going through a weird, tough time just with everything going on.

So I think more than anything now, this is incisive, raucous, a lot of fun. It's very physical. I really do think it's fun for the whole family. I don't know if you can bring your whole family to a casino, but I think there is really something for everyone because I genuinely want to include everyone in my standup. So if you leave feeling offended, maybe you shouldn't be watching standup at all.

Oh, it's in the special. So don't you worry. It's actually baked into my body of work. Look, I really think as a real feminist, my job is to hate everyone equally. And I think that truthfully, I always want women to leave feeling good from my shows. I am one and I see the things that we're up against. But

you don't have feminism without men agreeing and no man wants to buy a ticket to a show to be told that you're a problem or to be made to feel bad so i do believe in bringing everyone in and insulting everyone equally and uh you know we have an audience that's 60 men so i i'm sorry 40 men so i think they get the memo but uh when men degrade women it just reeks of like i'm sorry you didn't have sex in high school and you're like still bitter about that

Well, maybe back in the 20s it was different. No, I'm just kidding. Maybe contraceptions were different back then. It was the 30s, so quit maligning me. My mistake. It was called the Great Depression for a reason. Yes, it was. I'm not a political comic. I mean, look, you can probably tell by the tone of my voice, like, a little bit how I vote, but...

I believe that people are, we all contain multitudes and I believe it's a case by case basis. And I don't expect people who live in a rural area to agree with people who live in a city. My comedy is never political, it's always social. And I really pride myself on having a really nice mix of liberal, conservative, queer, you know, your grandpa, whatever. I do a lot of work with our USO.

I have a lot of military in our shows. I have a lot of people that span all political spectrums. And I think they keep coming back because there's certain inalienable truths in the comedy that I have. I don't know if my comedy brain is firing on all cylinders, but people want to feel good and nobody wants to feel bad for an hour for who they are or how they vote or what they think.

And so I always believe in digestible feminism. And that's why we play Florida. Because it's all type.

Dan, you ask such elegant questions. And I love that you said sculpting because it really is a piece of art. And I guess it's my seventh special. So like I've been here before, I know the feeling. But there is something.
