I feel like women are frequently seen as guests in the comedy world - you know, a kid sister of the “real comedians”. I like the idea of positioning myself as legendary rather than trying to fit in. Now do I see myself like that every day? No, but I think it's a funny attitude and maybe on some weird, spiritual level, maybe it's a good attitude.

Im Jewish and Italian, and I lucked out and got the nose of both cultures.

Its really irritating. Even people who like my work sometimes come up to me and say, I usually dont like female comedians, but your material is great! It makes the job prospect more daunting. Funny is funny, you know?

I only do private room karaoke where its just me and one of my closest girlfriends. My mom always said I could really belt songs out, and the Dixie Chicks feed that encouragement.

Do you guys think its worse to wear a fedora or kill 15 people?

Sometimes when Im nervous, thats when the most interesting things happen.

On tour, its either call ex-boyfriends or tweet a lot. Youre just looking for any proof that youre not completely alone.
