FINDING JOY IN THINGS THAT SUCK: GRACE KLEIN [EP. 05]
Grace Klein wanted to be a comedian from the very first time she got her family to laugh when she was a kid. It only took her a couple more decades to bring it to the stage, but once she started, she couldn’t stop. She brings her own spin to subjects like being single in your 30’s, not understanding church terms or young people and being stuck in a health crazed, hiking, Cross Fitting, kale eating, Fitbit wearing-society that she is too gluten, dairy, and peanut tolerant to fit into. She started as an improv comedian before transitioning into stand-up. “I had been writing down ideas and jokes for years, pages and pages full of them. And then one day I looked through them all and thought, ‘this is stand-up material’. Granted, most of the jokes weren’t good, but stand-up comedy was really the only avenue for delivering them.” GRACE KLEIN SHOW NOTES Finding joy in things that suck The gamble with political jokes San Diego comedy scene Growing up an SNL junkie Taking classes at Second City The goal is to be funny What kind of comedian do you want to be?
