The Washington Post once hailed her as "The tell-it-to-you-straight girlfriend every woman should have in her crew." Journalism accolades aside, however, Erin Jackson is first and foremost a comedian – and as her resume can attest, a very talented one at that.
Erin has appeared on numerous shows over the course of her career, including Late Night with Seth Meyers, CONAN, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, This Week at the Comedy Cellar, and of course, Last Comic Standing. Additionally, she co-hosted three seasons of Exhale, a panel talk series on the ASPiRE television network and has been a panelist on sports and pop-culture programs on MSNBC, NFL Network and VH-1 among others. Her debut comedy album, Grudgery, was released in 2018 and debuted at No. 1 on the iTunes comedy charts.
Erin joins Tabari on this episode of A Tight 45 to discuss comedy and sports, in particular comedy during COVID-19, how she kept her day job for a long time after her big break, her future goals, her parents ... And her disgust at Tabari's sports fandom polygamy.
