Jerrica Long

Our guest this week is writer, actor, comedian JERRICA LONG! She’s called herself a ‘recovering Hollywood assistant,’ and has worked in writers rooms on Veep, Black-ish, Diary of a Future President, Love & Hip Hop: New York, and we talk about all of them and more! We get into her journey in stand up comedy so far, coming out onstage, being treated and feeling like the diversity hire, the burden of educating others, hearing your jokes on TV for the first time, and so! much! more!
