I'm Jesse Thorn, it's Bullseye.

If you're looking for something to stream these days, maybe a reason to laugh, I have a recommendation.

A comedy special called Bangin by Nikki Glazer. It is so funny. Nikki is, of course, an accomplished

end up comic. She is also hosted shows on Comedy Central and MTV. She makes regular appearances in

all the roasts. If you've seen her in one of those, you probably remember her delivering the most

devastating cutting joke in a night dedicated to devastating cutting jokes. A lot of her stand-up is

about sex. So we'll be talking a lot about sex in the interview. If you or someone you're with

might be sensitive to that just a heads up. That is what we're chatting about. Anyway, let's kick

things off with a clip from her stand-up special Bangin. She's talking about how she often felt like

she wasn't pretty enough as a child. I kind of had an idea that I wasn't that cute, you know,

because I had a really beautiful sister growing up, never went through an awkward phase. She would

just so stunning. She literally would stop traffic when I pushed her in front of it and tried to

get her out of the way. And I'm the second pretty sister and then there isn't another one, but

I forgot that. But people would stop my mom as a child and tell my mom that my sister should be a

model right in front of me and be like, this child needs to be a model. And they wouldn't see me at first

and then I'd emerge from behind my mom's legs like nose for all to be like, what should I be?

Desperate to be discovered or whatever. And they're like, you should be, you're going to be a

model train enthusiast probably. I think you should start collecting soon.
