The Love & Comedy Podcast

We had super FUN with a super FAN this week. Raedene has sent in so many amazing questions so this week we decided to ask HER some questions too. Raedene is one of Sacramento's most energetic and talented young comics and a joy to be around, so we lost track of time in all the fun and get a strong "young comic" perspective on early comedy advice and mistakes.

As promised, this week's episode features a very special guest...YOU! Just kidding!
