In this 100th episode of the Hard Knock Knocks podcast, host Steve Davis chats with former National RAW Comedy Finalist Katie Burch about what it takes to be a successful comedian, her life in a cult, and why appealing to a woke crowd isn’t great for your comedy career. She also highlights the importance of suffering in the creation of jokes – or at least her preferred form of cruel dark comedy
