Meet Lauren Jamison AKA Kosher Barbie. I'm a sober Jewish comedienne from Texas who's trying to keep it clean! On this pod we grace the topics of sobriety, comedy, mental health and what's happening in the world as we currently know it. Wake up with me for a little sugar or anytime your day needs it!
This week I get down and dirty with my fave Alpha Female, Mistress K.
Boston born and with 2 degrees to boast, Mistress K began a career as a nurse working long shifts entertaining her patients for 12 years with a lot of time spent in the ICU in Neuro-Rehab. Everyday on the job she met dark times with humor. (This episode is worth tuning alone for the story about "Ten second Tom" if you remember the flick 50 First Dates).
Simultaneously she was in a bad relationship, in and out of the bedroom, which motivated her to become a purveyor of pleasurable toys.
"Why did I even go to college? I could've been selling fake dick on the mean streets and getting paid a lot better than going to school"...
Needless to say the sex toys stayed and the man did not. Through her DOM work she really came into her own. "Mistress K" was created out of necessity to reinvent the woman she always wanted to be. "It's incredible when you finally rise above being told that day after day you aren't worth anything." One day she'd had enough of the abuse realizing she was the only one that could make necessary BIG changes and boy did she.
Three years ago shifts turned to sets when Mistress K made her way West to the LA area to pursue a new dream in Comedy and she's never looked back. Now producing and performing in 6 shows monthly in the LA and Orange County area, this fierce femme never ceased fire during the pandemic. Stand to get whipped cuz no virus and no mans is gonna stand in her way!
Her production comedy, Future is Female (and Friends) with business partner and fellow comedienne, Ashleigh Rose is taking SoCal by storm.
I highly suggest you get your consent forms signed and get to a show near you soon stat!

Wake and Cake with Comedian Lindsay Adams
"Ashkenazi or bust!" Brace yourselves folks, two Jewish Comediennes just entered a Zoom Room...
Meet Lindsay Adams, Jersey born Comedian, Writer and Serial Baker. We both grew up in cities where being Jewish appeared to be rare. Lindsay says, "We didn't have a temple for a long time, so our congregation met at a church and the Rabbi would read the Torah under a large cross." Similarly in Texas, I attended Hebrew School at a Presbyterian Church because the nearest synagogue was 45 minutes away.
Lindsay and I rock out to some Jewish hymns and discuss what the hell they put in Gefilte fish. This lady loves to dish about food, so much so after unfortunately having to put a pandemic pin in her interactive Live Baking Comedy Show called 'Bake Stuff' she launched a new podcast 'Snack Time' to continue the fun around food.
She started baking to cope with the stress of the unstable world of comedy after being in the biz for 15 years. Like me, she no longer leans on the sauce unless its pesto or butterscotch...hold the scotch.
Lindsay has spent years exploring the connection between emotions and mental health with baking. "Baking makes me feel more vulnerable in a way," which could be said of comedy, too. "Why can't we talk about suicide and bake cookies?"
In this ep we also discuss cursive, corporate headhunting, childhood snacks and how stoked we are that live comedy has come back...outside! There's always a way to look at things differently. She says, "Quarantine has given me a chance to rediscover what makes me excited about comedy and performing."
Lindsay admits she'd totally eat a cake out of the garbage, and so would I, so if she's not checked in to the Betty Crocker Clinic for a confection overdose, catch her at a show soon al fresco!

Wake and Cake with Comedian Dylan Ray Sullivan
YEEHAW!!! Steers n Queers, Nuts n Fruits. This Texas made Writer, Actor and Comedian has left LA to come back to his roots and get in on the ground level of the Austin comedy scene that's about to explode.
Dylan Ray Sullivan was born in San Antonio and now he's returned to life off the Southbound 35 enjoying cheaper rent, in home washer/dryers and never-ending restaurants named with puns.
"I love moving, I've always been a person who likes fresh starts, I go to one city and get my bad reputation, then move on to the next".
The only reputation I've ever known of Dylan is to be off the charts hilarious.
Funny is funny, no matter what color, size, shape, or gender you are. Humor is a love language and Dylan exemplifies this exceptionally. You feel it the second he steps on stage. His talents and dedication have landed him appearances on Lights Out with David Spade and most recently in Showtime's Original Series, The Comedy Store, that beautifully chronicles the evolution of comedy within the walls of the mecca called Mitzi Shore's Sunset. Dylan was a staple in the culture at The Store as one of the Door Guys or as he and I coin in this episode, a "Door Y'all", where one minute he's in the Main Room doing five in front of 300 people, but then post set is unclogging a toilet or exercising bargaining power with chicken fingers.
It's an absolute must watch for anyone. Former stand-up comedian, Mike Binder, highlights one of pop culture's greatest practices of comedy with never-before-seen, archived footage and incisive, emotional interviews with some of the greatest and biggest names in comedy. I have no doubt Dylan is on his way to being one of them.
