It's the nicest comedian in LA, Erin Cholakian! Erin is blowing up on the internets, and she just performed at the Comedy Store for the "Is This Thing On" premier with Will Arnett. It's a classic Yenta sesh about mom trauma, comedy drama, and emotionally topping Michael B Jordan.

We Yenta about:

- Being “mom-fearing,” not God-fearing

- Performing for Searchlight Pictures at the Comedy Store

- Why comedians on Threads are exhausting

- Gatekeeping, insecurity, and high-school energy

- Doming Michael B. Jordan at axe throwing
