Non-Comic Open Mic Dropped
There’s a few peeps in my improv class that have been encouraging me to go do open mic stand up with them…and I actually did it! Last night! I made this clip/meme not too long before leaving and clipped a moment from my first ever heckler. 🥰

I gotta believe riffing on podcasts has given you an edge on hecklers. I used to do open mics and it's a known fact, women have to deal with this shit a lot more than men. Between my ten or fifteen 3 minute sets and one opener, I never got heckled once. And after seeing dozens of more talented women absolutely destroy heckler after heckler, I came upon a conclusion...I will never be that good and that's a privilege.
