S5 Episode 13 - Leadership and Gold Comedy with Lynn Harris

Lynn Harris is the founder of GOLD Comedy, the comedy school, professional network, and content studio where women and non-binary folks grow their comedy careers and creative side hustles, join a powerful community, and make funny stuff.  Through their classes, celebrity speaker series, sketch teams, shows, and more, Gold Comedy members build skills, rack up laurels, and nail their showbiz goals. Rachel Dratch is an advisor, and our guests and mentors have included Margaret Cho, Janeane Garofalo, Rachel Bloom, Patti Harrison, Bridget Everett, and staffers from The Daily Show, SNL, A Black Lady Sketch Show, Broad City, and more. L Lynn is based in Brooklyn, but through the magic of the internet, GOLD's reach is national/worldwide. She's dedicated her mumble-mumble-years long career to fusing the power of comedy with creativity, inclusivity, and social change. Lynn believes that comedy is power, because when you make people laugh, you make people listen. She also knows (and a zillion studies show) that comedy skills are life skills: professionally and personally, they help you write faster, think sharper, read a room, and build confidence and connection.
