Jessica Keenan is a stand-up comic who's pregnant with identical twins. She and Bridget sit down to discuss their shared breathing problems, Jessica's concern that she won't be able to tell her sons apart, being pregnant "old ladies" and what that means for raising their kids, the realization that worrying about the baby is never going away, the lifelong commitment of parenthood, and how feeling at war with themselves is one of the the hardest parts of pregnancy. They also cover Jessica's experience growing up in Vegas, how she got into comedy, how people who become comics obviously don't think that decision through, being desperate to be one of the "cool kids," their own expectations for their lives and how they both had to come to terms with settling down and stability after being so free. Check out Jessica's comedy special on HBO Max, Entre Nos: What She Said .
