Why Whitney Cummings Says This Is The Best Time To Be In Comedy
About this episode
Comedian Whitney Cummings joins executive producer Brian Teta to reflect on her week co‑hosting the show and shares what fascinated her most about the behind‑the‑scenes world of daytime television. She opens up about how she carved out a career for herself as a comedian, looks back on the comedy icons who inspired her, and discusses how the comedy landscape has evolved.
Whitney also explains why she still reads online comments—both the good and the bad—and what she takes from them. She talks about why she loves the adrenaline and unpredictability of live television and wraps by reminiscing about some of her favorite moments from late‑night TV and how those experiences shaped her.
