Summary

Renowned comedian Nikki Glaser takes us through the value of validation, her journey through getting good enough, mental health and the time it takes to earn success. About The Guest: Nikki Glaser is one of the funniest female voices in comedy today. For over a decade at clubs across the country, and as the host of three hit podcasts, Glaser has been honing her shockingly- honest, no-holds barred style of comedy. In that time, Nikki has also executive produced and hosted two TV shows: Nikki & Sara Live for MTV (a female-driven pop culture sketch comedy show) and Not Safe with Nikki Glaser for Comedy Central (a daring comedic show that tackled taboo sexual topics). In addition to her shows, Nikki has multiple stand-up specials and late-night tv appearances in which she jokes about her most humiliating moments as a woman in the modern world. Nikki’s past and current struggles with anorexia, depression, and anxiety are fair game in both her stand-up and in in-depth interviews like WTF with Marc Maron and JRE with Joe Rogan. Glaser has become a complete open book on mic - and not just for the laughs; she’s also adamant on being the voice for women that she yearned for as a young, confused, adolescent herself. You can currently find Nikki flexing her over-sharing muscle as the daily host of the (entirely female-staffed) morning radio show, You Up With Nikki Glaser on Comedy Central radio on Sirius XM.

0:00.0	Come on this journey with me. Each week when you join me, we are going to chase down our goals,
0:05.6	overcome adversity and set you up for a better tomorrow.
0:08.9	That's a no statement.
0:10.5	I'm ready for my close up.
0:11.7	Hi, and welcome back. I'm so for my close up. Hi and welcome back.
0:13.5	I'm so excited that you are back here with me today
0:16.8	as we go through this quarantine together.
0:20.5	So much has happened.
0:21.7	I feel like every week is a flipping lifetime. So much goes on. It is crazy and it's also crazy that we've got five weeks in on this quarantine already. It's surreal. It's almost becoming the new normal,
0:35.0	which is so bizarre and just speak so much to what we can adapt to.
0:38.0	I definitely had a harder time with the quarantine
0:41.0	in the first week, week and a half, because I was so scared of that
0:44.2	unknown, that uncertainty. What's odd for me, and I know it's very different for everyone,
0:49.6	so please no judging, I'm in a no judgment zone for everyone having empathy for everyone right now.
0:55.0	But the more that I just understand it seems like this is going to go on for a bit longer,
1:00.0	we can't control it, the more I'm giving into that and making the best of what I have.
1:04.7	So for me I'm lucky to be with my 12 year old son who is so funny and we've spent more time
1:11.2	together in the last five weeks than we have probably ever.
1:15.0	And it's been so fun having breakfast together, lunch together, dinner together,
1:20.0	and really getting to talk about so many different things and such cool things
1:23.9	happen this week. I got to hear my son give his first presentation. I've never
1:29.7	heard that because I'm not at school with him obviously so it was so good to be able to listen in outside of his bedroom. Yes, I am that mom
