I love Sara Benincasa. We met once for coffee a few years back after connecting on Facebook. She is something else. A ballsy brassy broad could be one way to describe her. Check her out on instagram @sarajbenincasa  where you may see her voluptuous breast and where I am not sure if she is ever wearing pants.  Sara is a stand-up comedian, actress, college speaker on mental health awareness, and the author of "Real Artists Have Day Jobs"  "DC Trip" "Great" ; and "Agorafabulous!: Dispatches From My Bedroom". She also wrote a very silly joke book called "Tim Kaine Is Your Nice Dad."  She hosts the podcast "Where Ya From?" and has interviewed Ben Stiller, Adam Pally, Jenny Yang and others about their origin stories (geographic and otherwise.) In 2017, she adapted "DC Trip" as a screenplay with Bona Fide, Gunpowder & Sky, and Adaptive Studios. She also adapted "Agorafabulous" as a pilot for TV with Academy Award-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody. Recent roles include "Corporate" on Comedy Central (2018), "Bill Nye Saves The World"" on Netflix (2017), "The Jim Gaffigan Show" on TVLand (2016) and the critically acclaimed short film "The Focus Group" (2016), which she also wrote. I do love her!
