The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

“To start stand-up you have to be a little dumb, a little self-centered, and arrogant enough to think, ‘Everybody’s gotta hear what I have to say.’”

Beth Stelling has turned anxiety, insecurity, and chaos into some of the sharpest comedy around. But before the Netflix specials and sold-out crowds, she was surviving on bagels, drink tickets, and pure stubbornness. Beth joins Dan to talk about growing up in Ohio, navigating a childhood shaped by instability, and why stand-up appealed to her need for control. She also opens up about sexism in comedy, the moments she nearly quit, and gives one of the most honest explanations of comedy you'll ever hear. Beth's new special, “We’re Looking For People Who Do Huge Numbers On Social Media” is available now on YouTube. Go to BethStelling.com for dates, tickets & more.
