  • you can have lots of kids even if you are a neurodivergent mess who's stressed out by pregnancy and babies

Hello from your favorite strong podcaster.

0:10.6

I keep hearing that I'm so strong.

0:14.1

It's your favorite strong cancer warrior podcaster.

0:18.6

I would like to begin by asking this question.

0:22.6

What makes you guys think that I am strong? Because I've heard that a lot. I think that you are

0:28.1

0:36.0

because I'm not from the streets. Or I am, but

Just speaking generally, it's interesting that I am doing stand-up comedy right before I go to St. Jude's to deal with this cancer

1:51.0

situation with one of my kids. And definitely, I don't think that's been done before. I don't

2:00.3

think there has been a mom in comedy that's like,

2:04.2

you know what's on my calendar for next week.

2:09.0

Yeah, that's never been done before.
