From the Struggle Bus to the Writers’ Room: Sam Jay’s Manifesto of Comedy & Chaos

from Hot & Bothered · host Melyssa Ford

This week, comedian, writer, and professional truth-teller Sam Jay pulls up and gets real about the wild ride from her rough childhood to running the late-night TV streets with her friends. We’re talking coming out in the most unapologetic way possible, discovering she was funny before she even knew it was a job, and how manifesting your dreams hits different when you’re actually doing it. Plus, plenty of laughs, life lessons, and probably a few moments where your therapist would take notes. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
