Your Mama's Kitchen is brought to you by Rivian.

My mother was so much not a cook that she would feed us all three meals at once in our high chair and then hose us down so she didn't have to cook or clean

anymore and then just let us run around the backyard to dry off breakfast, lunch and dinner

all at once? That's what she said. I'm sure it wasn't our entire childhood, but I think she

experimented. You know, she was doing her best. I'm still alive. I'm here.

What do they call that intermittent fasting? Oh my God. The longest fasting of a two-year-old.

Hello, hello. Welcome back to your mama's kitchen. This is the place where we explore how we are shaped as adults by the kitchens that we grow up in as kids. Not just the food, all the stuff that goes on there, the sibling rivalries, the homework at the kitchen table, the music on the radio.

I'm Michelle Norris. And we're in for a treat because our guest today is comedian and fellow podcaster Tignotaro. She's made a name for herself on comedy stages with her brilliant brand of

deadpan humor, her ability to make anything funny, and I really do

mean anything. And I'm talking about the good stuff, the bad stuff, the tragic stuff. She does it all.

She wrote, produced, and starred in the critically acclaimed one Mississippi. It was based on her

life. And on top of that, she co-host a weekly podcast called Handsome.

And she also produced an upcoming film that we're all excited about.

It's called Come See Me in the Good Light.

It follows two partners who deal with an incurable cancer through love and laughter.

And she knows a little bit about juggling love and laughter.

You can see, come see me in The Good Light will premiere in select theaters and stream globally on Apple TV Plus on November 14th,

2025. TIG, we have been waiting to talk to you for a long time. I'm glad we could align our

calendars so we could make this happen. Thanks so much for being

with us. Thank you for having me. Thanks for your patience. Oh, you know, you're worth waiting for.

Well, wait until the end of the episode. We'll see. But I'm confident of that. Now, you know how the show works.

We talked to people about the kitchens that they grew up in. You moved around a little bit when you were young. But if you would take the kitchen that you remember the most and a young TIG, I guess that's what they called you even when you were young. I read that your brother gave you that nickname.
