Summary

Erin Maguire returns to the podcast for a catch-up after our last conversation when she had just made it home from a frightening travel experience. This time, Erin shares stories from her early twenties, including a string of questionable dating experiences that taught her a lot about trust and relationships. We also talk about the stand-up comedy world, why Los Angeles is such an important place for comedians to grow, and the strong sense of community that exists in the LA comedy scene. It’s a funny, honest conversation about learning, evolving, and finding your place.

If you ever seen any specials, he makes me talk like, well, I ain't got none of that on my heels. I don't know what you're talking about, boy. And I don't talk like that. It's fun. It's fun to be in Los Angeles. You like it? I love it. Pull your mic up to you a little closer.

0:38.5

We already started.

0:56.2

Oh, have we? Oh, we've begun. Good, because I didn't know. You know, we're speaking like that. It's just like you're in my house. Exactly. We're just chilling. We're just chilling. We're just chillaxing. You like that way? Look, it's been over 10 years since I've been here.

0:56.2

At all? You haven it's been over 10 years since I've been here.

1:04.6

At all? You haven't even been to visit? No. Why? I don't know. It's like I always want to come out here,

1:08.1

but I feel like there's no point coming out unless there's some reason to sort of be here. It's like I've wanted to, you know, come out here with a job or a gig or something like that. And then it gives me a reason to stay. But I've been putting it in my head, talk about, I've been manifesting. Nice. Fully did a vision board. Did you? I did. They're so powerful. They really are. You know, as, as woo-woo and crunchy granola as all that can be. I'm like, okay, there is something to this. They're 100%. I got bird from a vision board. Oh, yeah. Wow, that must have been a hell of a vision board. Right. I want to see what the pictures are. I like put it all in there. And then I was like, I found the vision board later and I went actually this is all

1:46.0

burnt actually wild uh everything on this board is burnt like I put like fun and okay

1:53.3

someone I could be myself with and at the time he had a really rocking body like ridiculous rock and body. Well, he's getting back there, man. He is. Ripped. He is. He's working out. He's working out. He's got a great body now to me. I thought I was, I thought I needed one thing and realized I actually needed something else. Always. So, always, right? Yeah. So, but the vision board,

yeah, I remember pulling it out and going, oh my God, he's exactly, it's exactly bird. That's funny.

2:24.3

I've never written down a vision board for a guy and maybe that's why I've dated so many con men.

2:30.4

Wait, I thought you were married. I am married. Okay. But like at the time when I was playing the field, boys, back in 1903, I was looking for a man.

2:41.3

And I was like, give me a man who will steal my credit card information.

2:45.7

Yes.

2:46.4

Did you have that happen?

2:47.6

2:48.8

You did?

2:49.4

I literally dated a comment.
