WHAT'S NEXT with Emma Arnold

My apologies to Olivia for how long this one took to edit, it's such a good listen! Olivia Cathcart is an incredible comedian and writer, her articles on Paste are brave, hilarious, and no bullshit. She's one of the few people in standup willing to take on the real issues of the industry. Plus I love her reviews of tv and movies so much! We talked comedy, sexism, and  what makes good television.

This episode is so wonderful, it warmed me up and got me ready for summer! Open Mike Eagle is one of my favorite people and we dug deep into grief, creativity, divorce, and parenting. This is the last of the "exploring the afterlife" series, very excited for what's next!

If you've enjoyed my albums, it's in no small part thanks to this week's guest! Janae Burris has been kind enough to open for me before every recording and she's one of the funniest people with whom I've ever worked. An immense talent and absolute joy, we talked about anxiety, a healthy fear of death, and her experience growing up Pentecostal.
