Speaker 1: now with very funny comedian Jessica Michelle Singleton and she
Speaker 1: is going to make her way to Sue Fall, South
Speaker 1: Dakota on October eleventh. First of all, welcome to the
Speaker 1: phone here, and I'm excited to chat with you. But
Speaker 1: have you been to South Dakota before?
Speaker 2: You know what? I actually have been the Sue Falls. God,
Speaker 2: it was like twenty sixteen on a long road trip.
Speaker 2: I probably shouldn't say this. There used to be a
Speaker 2: comedy club there. Yeah, and I did a weekend there.
Speaker 2: In minute. I think they shut down the weekend after
Speaker 2: I launched.
Speaker 1: Well, but the shows were great.
Speaker 2: They were packed and the audiences were we're incredible, so
Speaker 2: that I was like, wait, what, No, there was no
Speaker 2: one there, but.
Speaker 1: So you had to sold our crowd and you shut
Speaker 1: them down in the best possible way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was such a funny. I was like, this
Speaker 2: feels ominous, but the people were great. I grew up
Speaker 2: in Anchorage, Alaska, which is obviously far away, but it's
Speaker 2: a very just real, working class good You can like
Speaker 2: talk to your neighbor, you could ask a springer for
Speaker 2: directions people, and that's the vibe I got from the crowd.
Speaker 2: You could say any jokes, everyone could laugh at everything,
Speaker 2: and so I'm very excited to be coming back.
Speaker 1: Yeah, very few people here have bodies in their basement.
Speaker 1: I mean very few, so.
Speaker 2: Well at least one person comes out. I feel like
Speaker 2: that'll be just good, good tread.
Speaker 1: No, it'll be really good. We're excited to have you
Speaker 1: here Friday, October eleventh. That the I call the Icon
Speaker 1: Event Hall and Lounge, and that is a good place
Speaker 1: for comedy show. So I think you're gonna love the
Speaker 1: space for people who have not had a chance to
Speaker 1: see you, and when you're not shutting down comedy clubs.
Speaker 1: What what kind how are you describe? How do you
Speaker 1: describe your humor? What what type of like do you
Speaker 1: get compared to another comic or how do how would
Speaker 1: you describe.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm trying to think who I get compared
Speaker 2: to the most. I don't know. I'm pretty I'm a
Speaker 2: little observational. It's personal. If you like dirty jokes, they're
Speaker 2: not all dirty, but I do get dirty. So if
Speaker 2: you hate that, that's we're going kind of dark humor
Speaker 2: and more like societal observations about the things we all
Speaker 2: do in daily life and nice. Yeah, I've been compared
Speaker 2: to such a variety of comics that it's bizarre, from
Speaker 2: Nikki Glazer to Bilbird of Sam Kinnison and Robin Williams.
Speaker 1: I love it. That's quite a swave. That's very good.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 2: I'll take it.
Speaker 1: I will take it like if Jeff done them. It's
Speaker 1: like if Jeff Dunham didn't have any puppets. That's like
Speaker 1: that if if if carat Top used no props, uh puppets.
Speaker 2: Became sentient, grew up and started their own probably.
Speaker 1: Oh, I love it. No, that is that is awesome. Well,
Speaker 1: the show is coming up intout Falls. Tickets are available now.
Speaker 1: I'm going to make it easy for people to find
Speaker 1: those tickets. But I encourage people to get out and
Speaker 1: check out the show. And this is a part of
Speaker 1: a tour You're not flying here just for this. You're
Speaker 1: like kind of going all over the Midwest doing a
Speaker 1: bunch of fun shows, aren't you.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'll be coming in from Omaha the night before.
Speaker 2: Then I'm at a to Fargo, North Dakota, which that'll
Speaker 2: be a first for me. Uh. We're bouncing around all
Speaker 2: over all. Be in Montana a little bit later. So
Speaker 2: it's been a fun year of going to I'm intentionally
Speaker 2: trying to go to the kind of like slightly smaller
Speaker 2: cities that maybe don't get as much so that you know,
Speaker 2: we need from there too.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, we need fun more lack we do. We need
Speaker 1: as many laughs as we can get. Now. You said
Speaker 1: you're from Anchorage, Alaska, but when we were chatting, you
Speaker 1: said you live in Los Angeles. Now, those two communities
Speaker 1: are almost identical, aren't they. There's booms everywhere you go.
Speaker 2: No, no, it was quite a culture.
Speaker 1: I was going to say that would have to be
Speaker 1: quite a difference because I've never been Anchorage. I actually
Speaker 1: my sister lived there for a while. I should have
Speaker 1: gone to visit. But from what I've been told, it
Speaker 1: is quite a different pace than something like a Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's much. It's so funny because growing up
Speaker 2: in Anchorage, I thought I live in a big city,
Speaker 2: and then I'm like, that was a fall town. Well
Speaker 2: it's just very You know your neighbor there and people
Speaker 2: get along. You can get across town in twenty minutes
Speaker 2: and you take it a mile and twenty minutes in
Speaker 2: Los Angeles and if you look at your neighbors, they're like,
Speaker 2: what I want?
Speaker 1: So what was it that brought you to LA? Was
Speaker 1: there like a job opportunity that took you there or
Speaker 1: you just wanted to be there? Why did you end
Speaker 1: up there?
Speaker 2: You know, I wanted to do stand up comedy. I
Speaker 2: was in college my senior year and I didn't open
Speaker 2: mic and it went really well, and for some reason
Speaker 2: I thought you had to go to New York or LA,
Speaker 2: and I was just it was literally the aversion from
Speaker 2: being in Alaskan weather for so long. I was like,
Speaker 2: I'm going to go to LA and try to do comedy.
Speaker 2: So I just came out here. I worked for a
Speaker 2: few years for a nonprofit helping blind and visually impaired children,
Speaker 2: and then as the snowball built type, you know, eventually
Speaker 2: went to do end up.
Speaker 1: In your person and the thing that's cool it's working,
Speaker 1: or you probably wouldn't still be there, right, Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: the minute.
Speaker 2: This stuffed working. It is so expensive here I am.
Speaker 2: I will probably be in Supitball. I'm on my way us.
Speaker 2: I'll be looking at real estate when I get there.
Speaker 2: Just in faz things take it to no day.
Speaker 1: Wow. We are excited to have you here, and if
