Samantha Bee
I don't feel like any of the things we're talking about are going to make the world end.
Samantha Bee
Speaking for myself, I try to go out there on the stage and make jokes with people, so I'm not really thinking about the impact anything I have. If it does resonate with people, that's really great.
Samantha Bee

Samantha Bee
A lot of comedy is really DIY. You're kind of doing it yourself.
