There are women over 40 in the South that are like very sassy that yes have a very funny take and like she's

Representative of I'm sure tons of during kinds of people but like that's a voice that's a very valid voice and so we're seeing that

across all sorts of spectrums color gender queer whatever it's not just like there's

you can make yourself accessible. There's no kingmakers anymore like just because you don't have a Netflix special doesn't mean you can't have a YouTube special doesn't mean you can't blow up on Tik-talk. The market dictates and that is what's so great about stand-up

is the bad and good thing about it

is like you live and die by your jokes.

Hi, I'm Rachel, and in this show, we talk about everything. Life and work, health and healing, relationships with others and with ourselves. These are stories for the seekers. These are conversations

for the curious. This is the Rachel Hollis Podcast.

Hey guys, it's Rach here and welcome to another episode in our mastermind series.

So if you're not already familiar,

mastermind is where we pick a single topic

and then we bring in the best of the best,

interviews, teachers, creators, writers, musicians, doesn't matter who

it is, but in seven years of doing this show, we've had some really good conversations and we bring in the best around

this specific topic. Today we're talking about failure, but we're talking about failure with a bunch of comedians. We thought it would be

awesome to approach failure through a more light-hearted perspective. So in today's episode you're going to hear from Bert

Criesher, Dane Cook, Eliza Schlesinger, Catherine Reitman, and anyone else we can

think of who is talking about their journey to becoming a comedian

and what failure looked like along the way.

Hopefully this episode makes you laugh.

Hopefully it inspires you to keep doing your thing,

whatever your thing is.
