ONLY BOMBS! 23: Monarey Martinez

In this episode Monarey and I have a discussion about her life and how comedy has played a part in it. She opens up about the LA, NYC, and Austin comedy scenes and shares her experience navigating them. This is such a great conversation, and as a newer comic, I really learned a lot. It was awesome having someone with so much experience share her story! Thanks for coming on the show, Monarey!
