Podcasts about Women in comedy

This week Jackie (@jackiekashian) and Laurie (@anylaurie16) further discuss a certain controversial comedy festival. Comics who have declined to perform at the festival have posted the potential payday the festival offered. Our ladies question how many zeros their integrity could withstand. Comedians attending are forbidden to make jokes about a country filled with comedy premises. Can anyone stay that strong for an entire festival? Plus, by the end of this episode you're going to know all about Laurie's pre-set gum ritual. Subscribe to the podcast, and give it a 5-star rating and review to help the show move up the charts.

The Life & Death of Peter Sellers caused something of a stir upon original publication in 1994. Rather than being a dispassionate account of the actor's life and work it leaned in quite heavily on his failings as a man and the author himself wasn't afraid to offer his personal views. That author, Roger Lewis, joins Tyler this week as the book is out in a brand new edition to coincide with Sellers' centenary this year. Roger has written a new afterword: The Centennial Sellers and Steve Coogan supplied a foreword. They discussed Sellers' strengths and weaknesses, his films, the Goon Show, people he worked with and fell in and out with and tried to nail down what it was about his self-destructive melancholy private personality that so absorbed Roger early on in the writing of the book. Alexander Walker comes in for a bit of a kicking too! There's also quite a bit about the film of the book and speculations about what Sellers might have done had he lived beyond 1980. Added to this, Roger talks about his previous book on Charles Hawtrey which is being reissued next year and the book he is currently engaged upon: Victoria Wood, and the women in comedy who influenced and shaped her unique talent.

In this episode of 2 Girls 1 Blunt, the ladies dive into everything from zoo scandals to ugly baby fears, all while navigating the chaos of adulthood.We kick things off with the viral Danish zoo controversy asking people to donate their pets as food (yes, really).

The girls also debate whether men or women have more holes, unpack childhood trauma, and expose the weirdest family dynamics. 2 Girls 1 Blunt is a comedy podcast hosted by two unapologetic stoner comedians from Boston, Jaime Lee Simmons and Emily Wade.

Carol Leifer entered comedy when a woman stand-up was considered a novelty or a niche, but even then she knew "things would eventually change." And change has come, due in no small part to Carol's own stelar show biz contributions. Carol joins us this week to talk about her formative years, her early standup, giving voice to iconic characters like Elaine Benes and Deborah Vance, and her new book, How to Write a Funny Speech!Carol's relationship with her father, an optometrist with an ear for comedy and a quick wit that delighted both patients and family, laid the foundation for her career trajectory. Her supportive parents encouraged her to pursue stand-up when the opportunity struck, and very soon, she was right at home at The Improv and on The Tonight Show.Even within the male-dominated comedy space, Carol found herself buoyed by peers and colleagues, in the clubs and on the sets of seminal sitcoms such as Seinfeld, The Larry Sanders Show and Curb Your Enthusiasm.Carol's Seinfeld contributions tapped into women's lived experiences and brought us the skinny mirror, the marble rye and the nail salon, but she reveals which of Elaine's iconic storylines was not her brainchild - 'sponge-worthy' was actually coined by male writer, Peter Mehlman!Enjoy an exciting spin on your favorite podcast showbiz trivia game as we invite Carol to play IMDB Roulette: Writer's Edition, where she dives into the intricacies of writing for: Seinfeld, Curb, Hacks, SNL and Ellen, plus traveling the globe with Henry Winkler, George Foreman, Terry Bradshaw and William Shatner!

The exuberantly effervescent Jo Anne Worley, queen of the quip and paradigm of the pizzazz, turns our studio into a cabaret club this week, dazzling and delighting with stories of show biz daring do… her fearless stage style, her bold reach for brilliance, behind the scenes lore from the set of Laugh-In and a fabulous flurry of anecdotes and memories from an unrivaled career.The girl from Lowell, Indiana knew she was destined for the business when she distracted the most vicious teacher in her two-room schoolhouse with a hilarious crack that saved the hide of another student.After high school she hit the ground and then the train running out of her tiny town towards the Pickwick Players and a life in theater, where she literally ate the scenery, salting and snacking on a tomato during a key court scene in The Mikado.  Jo Anne built an all singing and dancing nightclub act because, at the time, women did not talk on stage. Her comic gifts so impressed Merv Griffin's wife, it lead to her frequent appearances with Merv on his show and a chance to audition for George Schlatter, creator of Laugh-In.Her iconic role on that revolutionary sketch show earned her a permanent spot in pop culture and entertainment history and she shares with us some deep insider info: How John Wayne gallantly lifted her down from the joke wall and that time a mime, Marcel Marceau, perfectly impersonated this vocally resonant performer without a sound.No one makes an entrance, or unleashes a song parody or lights into a Bob Hope story like Jo Anne Worley! So strap in for hilarity. What did Jo Anne say to Jerry Lewis to earn her spot in his comedy workshop? What's it like to share a fence with Jonathon Winters? And we've got a rollicking round of IMDB Roulette that serves as a masterclass in the glory days of entertainment. In recommendations--Weezy: Tetris, Apple TV+ Movie and The Tetris Murders doc Series on Max Fritz: Hulu Sitcom, Mid-Century Modern Path Points of Interest:Jo Anne Worley on WikiJo Anne Worley on IMDBActors and Others for AnimalsActors and Others for Animals Ebay ItemsBilly Barnes Bash at Catalina Jazz Club on April 27thRuta Lee's Birthday on May 30thTetris (The Movie)The Tetris Murders MId Century Modern on HuluMedia Path Podcast
