I think NASCAR's coming to Canada now so it'll take on a whole new relevance. Be afraid.
Samantha BeeEverybody is agreeing so tersely. I just had a flashback to the month before my parents finally admitted they were getting a divorce.
Samantha BeeI don't think that comedy is going to affect or change anything. I remember back in 2004 people were like, "How does it feel knowing that you're going to be part of the shifting tide in the political system?" And in the end nothing changed, and we weren't part of anything. And we're not happy anywhere. I think we're kind of hoping, obviously, but it didn't really have a great impact on people.
Samantha BeeI can't claim to feel like I've been under some man's thumb in comedy. I've sort of always done my own thing for better or worse, and have been lucky enough to be able to perform ever since.
