My first guest is Gretchen Dee, a San Diego native who started comedy just before her 37th birthday on August 2nd, 2025. She had always wanted to do stand-up since her 20s and finally, life allowed her a schedule to do it.
Humor and comedy have always been a big component of her life and as she always felt that if you can laugh at it you can handle it.
She has produced two shows to benefit a nonprofit food bank because she feels that if you have access to a microphone, you should use it for good.
You can catch her April 24th at Sunset Stand-Up Presents in San Diego and May 9th at Kilowatt Brewing.
Follow her on Instagram @NotSoSerious Gretchen
Fun Fact: She collects cactus as though are the only pricks worth her time.
Let’s jump into the convo with the very funny Gretchen Dee.
