00:00Shrinking. Coming up. Season 3. Nobody wants this. Period. You're working on your stand-up.
00:05It's a group project. You're the leader. We have stories that need to be seen and heard.
00:11You're still not prioritized. That is definitely a constant fight and fire within me.
00:17Back then too, it was very much a stereotypical role. You're playing real people, real relatable
00:23roles that when I am watching, I see myself. My daughter, you know, the next generation,
00:29they're just going to be used to seeing themselves on screen. I don't know if you realize like how
00:35important that is. When I watched Margaret Cho be so outspoken and bold in her stand-up when I was
00:40like
00:40a teenager, I wanted to live like that. You know, I wanted to walk in a room and prove people
00:46wrong.
00:46I wanted to make sure they knew I wasn't timid, which is exhausting as well. You're truly genuinely
00:53proud and you want to share your culture, your story. Which wasn't overnight. Because I remember
00:59bringing whatever dumpling with extra, extra, extra chives. You know what I mean? And feeling embarrassed.
