Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Krebscast since the podcast where we talk to people for and or from the Midwest.

We are brought to you by Jolly Goodsoda and here is this week's episode.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another episode of the Krebscast.

I am so, so excited this week is one of my, uh, one of my favorite comedians is coming on Laura Bites.

Uh, she is a Milwaukee comedian.

And uh, she grew up in Wisconsin, came up in the Milwaukee scene and then went to Chicago and L.A.

Um, but she, she's one, I admire her because she's one of those people who like her standup has really driven her success,

which is I think, uh, rare to find these days.

You know, I think a lot of people rely on the social media stuff, uh, myself included, uh,

but I've always really enjoyed her comedy and, um, her standup and to just see the success she has achieved is, is so cool.

She's, uh, toured with, uh, Joe Rogan, she's toured with Mark Marin.

Uh, she's been on the late, late show with James Corden, uh, it had a set on Comedy Central's lights out with David Spade.

Absolutely hilarious. Um, and we will get to that interview in a moment.

But first, Colleen Maraca, EP of the Cripes cast, how, how are we doing?

We're doing good. It's cold out there.

It is cold. I think it's what I was 30 today and it's kind of hard for me to start dressing like that again.

I don't remember like what that is. It's the first week of getting back and addressing for winter.

Mm, yeah. Colleen, by the way, your voice is sounding a little rough.

Did you, uh, perhaps celebrate too much this weekend for your birthday?

No, I just, no, we're good.

Okay. It's just, just, no, nothing at all.

Colleen turned 25.
