“Just keep going. Either don’t do it, or keep going, that’s all.” This week David and Chris get an interesting perspective on the business from prolific stand-up comic Sonya Vai. Sonya was born and raised in NYC, but is constantly asked “where are you really from?” by drunk men in bars. And, although she's of South Asian descent, she says she has a culturally diverse face and is often mistaken for a terrorist. See? She’s funny! We talk about her national comedy tour — where she performed in 20 cities over 23 days — her European tour this past summer, what it’s like to open for Judah Friedlander, and being on stage nightly in NYC at venues such as New York Comedy Club, The Stand NYC, Gotham, and Carolines. Actors who want to be stand-ups, tune in!
