What if comedy isn’t just punchlines — but leverage?
Lynn Harris, founder & CEO of GOLD Comedy didn’t wait for a seat at the table. She redesigned the room.
In this explosively insightful conversation, Lynn pulls back the curtain on gatekeeping, the myth of “confidence,” and why comedy is one of the most powerful delivery systems for culture, access, and who society learns to listen to — in ways policy papers and protests alone cannot reach.
We trace the long arc of women in comedy, dig into the economics of creative work, and ask why “women’s comedy” is still treated like a category instead of just… comedy.
The real issue was never women finding their voice. It’s whether the world is ready to hear it. Sharp. Funny. Deeply revealing. This one hits.
If you’ve ever wondered who holds the mic — and why it matters — this conversation is for you.
