My guest today is Eliza Schlesinger, comedian and writer.

You've probably seen Eliza's hilarious stand-up specials on Netflix or her movie Good

On Paper that came out last year that my fiancee Paul happened to produce.

So I was really excited to have a conversation with Eliza and see what she's like off-stage.

Today we talk about comedy and the era of cancel culture, the ups and downs of being

a comedian and so much more.

Enjoy.

Did I meet you in a comedy club ever or no?

No.

And you started Good On Paper, which did really well in Netflix.

Yeah, I wrote it all came from a general meeting with Paul in Boston several years ago.

And you know, you don't get very many yeses like concrete yeses in this business.
