And then there's like, you know, before I did stand up, I was kind of shocked.

I thought comics just went up and kind of winged it for an hour.

We're like, of course they don't.

That would be insane and boring and wouldn't get anyone anywhere.

so when there's women saying they're coming back I almost feel like asking them like not to because I'm like you're going to see I feel like it loses its charm a little bit yeah you're kind of seeing how the sausage is made exactly you're kind of pulling it back you're pulling back the curtains and you see but

So basically, I haven't... I've been off for Christmas and I really enjoyed my downtime.

But I want every show... You can't kind of go back on stage in the Olympia and be like, oh, I'm just kind of squeaking back to life.

You need to fucking hit the ground running.

And there's no room for...

squeaking back to life yeah so I was like I have to do a I'm gonna do a warm-up I'm doing it's only 20 I just put 20 tickets up in Whelans tonight that'll be fab I think it'll be fun for me anyway I'd love them but I and then kind of just get the show back up on its feet and also I'm trying to make the show better so I'm trying new stuff to kind of tighten it up that I wouldn't I wouldn't disrespect the Olympia by trying new material on them

Yeah, it is.

It's fun.

You never know, Louise.

Oh, we'll see.

You have a great sense of humor.

Oh, thanks, girl.

But it's when you get something that works.

The thing is, it's a pain in the hell writing stuff.

Like sometimes I love it if it works.

And then sometimes you think you've written the most entertaining thing.
