Most people don’t start stand-up in their 50s, but Lindsay Porter has never taken the usual route.

She’s a mom, a teacher, a longtime kidney-transplant survivor, and now a comic who finally has time to chase the thing she always wanted to do.

In this episode, Lindsay and Andrea talk about empty-nest feelings, late-bloomer career leaps, and the accidental ways we traumatize our pets. Plus, why moms are always the designated “adult in the room,” even when they don’t feel like it.

Some moms grow up in the suburbs. Jené Suplee grew up in a cult and somehow turned it into comedy gold.

This week, she joins Andrea to talk about the very unusual childhood she didn’t sign up for and the moment she realized things were not exactly “normal.” Plus, she shares how she went from commune life to corporate life to stand-up… all while raising a toddler who already has main-character energy.

It’s unhinged in the best way, and you’ll never guess which part of her story comes first.

Most people don’t leave law to chase laughter, but Catherine Shea isn’t most people.

She didn’t plan to become a comedian—she just needed a hobby. But after one class and a handful of jokes about motherhood, she found herself hooked.

This week, Andrea talks with the Colorado-based comic and former attorney about leaving law, building confidence on stage, and how laughter helped her rewrite what midlife could look like.
