so obnoxious. That this poor girl just showed up

right? Luz, Luz. Hi.

I have to kill it. Don't worry.

So Luz is a stand up comedian. I met her well, actually, I met her afterward. But I went to this gig in Lewisboro, New York, you know, South Salem area. It was at the library and I thought it was around Father's Day. And I thought what the what the hell? I'm gonna go see some stand up comedians.

Wow, that really right? Big insight into how you spend your father's day. I went by myself I don't want to say like most fathers with their family. Why? You

my kids hate my gut. No shows the library

with Luz 75 different nationality backgrounds.

Unbelievable. She's born in Colombia. She's Native Indian. Right? She is adopted by two Jews and she lives in Staten Island. What else do you need to say?

Listen, Luz, you don't want to say another word. Luz, do they have any native Indian Recipes for bee stings? Come on. I'd probably say baking soda. He won't even in Colombia. What are the Jewish parents? What would they do for a beasting?

Everything and were goin to the.doctor the way

it's so good to meet you. Yeah.

This was a great introduction. Yeah. Charlie.

She's done stand up at Caroline's, you've done the Laugh Lounge. And then she's a producer. She has this company called Hard Headed Comedy where she puts together comedy shows for up and coming comedians. I love it. Right and established comedians I did stand up a couple times. And I kill it but I'm afraid. Everyone's afraid. I know. Really. I'm so afraid. I can't go back. I was I was so good that there was a contest and they give you they they had a green light that was like go and then a red light Shut up. Right. Yeah, to move it along. Yeah, I got my first laugh. I was like, I don't even like you can flash those lights like it's an emergency road cross. Train costly. I'm not getting off here. And I just love loving the light. love getting the laughter So you live for that. Isn't it just fabulous when you make people laugh? It's just it's a joyful gift. Yeah.

And I love drugs and alcohol. fact that I can feel it. Yeah, no,

it's right now that's great. You

are great. I mean, and then I ran into her in New Canaan, Connecticut, of all places.

We were the only Hispanics. Yeah, my husband and I. Yeah, it's

it's so white in New Canaan. And you know, look out cooler hair is right. And I was like, God, I hope I meet this chick again after the lewisboro Gig right? And there she was like a week later and in New Canaan at this freakin restaurant. What was the name of that restaurant? I always forget. It was like, back and back end worked. Yeah, in New Canaan. No way. No, you know, so I ended up there with my friend Quinton and Jon Moxley. And Jenny Drew.

That sound very very pale to me. Oh, those works. Well, John

and Jenny claims that her family came over on the Mayflower. Ask her

well if you're not pale, jenny, if you're listening, pale and you're on that Mayflower you're gonna be wait. Yeah, that trip was rough fashion people came over back in the day with no cell phones no like direction they got on a boat and went across the ocean mean those are brief people

well, they when you when you have to get out of somewhere or whatever you want, they don't even know where they're

going. So desperately wants to get out. Anybody who's left their home country to come to a new country for a new opportunity to me has my greatest respect. I don't know that it has to do, very

Oh you're veryseriously right now. Debbie asked me, me, ask me. Hey, Luz, how about when Debbie said, Charlie, will you take if I have to go to the hospital? You take me? We didn't even say Yes, right away. I was because I had to chip cubes and Luz said, it's your house. You got to take her you have

no idea how much pain they mean. Really?

That tiny little thing

that's not tiny. That looked like a hole?

That could you imagine then when I got stung on my unit three times by Hornets,

I told you, yeah, that's the pictures you shouldn't use for match.com. All right, let's about Luz. Now. When you go on stage, right? Do you have an act that you have perfected or you kind of flow with it? What's your thing when

you're Are you Miss improv all the way?

No, I'm definitely not miss improv. Okay. I do both. Yeah, I'll say like, I like to riff. And then I like to do material that I know is always gonna work. Yeah. Yeah.

So what are we so when you're talking about obviously, your

your heritage, the background, marriage and parenting that will get them? Show up? Right? It's just so different. But is it? Like if I was in Staten Island, or Brooklyn, New York, it'd be completely normal, right? Everyone's yelling and cursing at their kids.

In South Salem, and she's at this, she's at this gig, right? Everybody was older than me. This gig, right? They were and she's killing it. It's funny, and they're just sitting there. Like, you know, they're sitting there. And I'm like, I don't know how she doing this. Oh, man. Yeah,

they come up at the end and they are like I had such a great time. Thank you so much. And I'm like you did? Yeah, because sometimes you don't know some people respond to comedy in a different they could be laughing inside. Yeah, actually.

Yeah. So I'm still alive. Right. Okay. Yeah. Here. I may have to leave in the middle of the podcast. Whoa. Why did these things hurt so much? No, really? That's outrageous. That little that little thing just put me in tortured mode, right? Yeah,

I know. You were tears when you were freaking out. I'm gonna drink this water.

Look, I'm allergic and I took a Benadryl right away. But that's not enough. There's not a lot of time. Really? That's bad cell service here. There's no service.
