Please enjoy my sit down with Britt Birrer: 0:00 - Britt enjoys pan dulce and cafecito. And puppies. 0:55 - Jesse finds it necessary to share that Laura did NOT, in fact, make the tortillas. They were from Trader Joe’s. Thank you, Jesse. 2:45 - What do roses, soccer, and The Beatles have in common? Britt once swore she hated them all. But she does approve of your coffee preferences. Progressive. 4:53 - Band geeks be band geeks. Shout out to Britt’s now disbanded Jazz Pirates. 7:25 - Britt’s comedy roots and coast-to-coast adventures with her best friend, Heather, soaking in the comedy scene. She shares her experiences with Improv Olympics, The Second City, conservatory programs, and competitive auditions. 16:48 - “It’s been a long journey.” Britt discusses mental health. Jesse asks if she uses any characteristics of her OCD to her advantage. 18:55 - “Every human is creative and I want to help create a world where people have more freedom to create art.” Britt talks about her relationship with fashion and her end goal of being a film writer and director. 27:23 - Britt congratulates Jesse on his recorded show at Punchline.

(Fun fact: Britt also fears wielding the power to make her own bread.) 44:01 - Question #5: What’s next? 45:09 - Wrapping up: Britt is hella cool and didn’t want to leave. The feeling was mutual.
