Episode Description
#127 with Multi-talented Rosie Tran! On this episode I talk to comedian Rosie Tran, we talk about Rosie's 24-year career in comedy, her creation of the "Rosie Tran Presents" comedy showcase series streaming on Amazon, and her approach to building a platform for underrepresented voices in entertainment. Rosie shared her journey from being discouraged by a misogynistic rejection letter for a female comedy tour to developing her own successful showcase series. We also discussed the challenges of touring, the importance of context in comedy, and the evolution of comedy genres beyond just "funny or not funny." We explored topics including the impact of social media on comedy, the craft of stand-up comedy and how, even experienced comedians must practice new material in front of audiences to determine what works, and the pressures entertainers face to constantly perform and maintain visibility in the industry.
