Esther Povitsky & Whitney Cummings Discuss Comedy | Ep 38

Esther apologized for talking too much at the end but I felt like Whitney interrupted her a lot. Kinda bummed, I love Whitney but I was excited to hear Esther too and I don't feel like I got to hear her very much. Still a great episode, I just wish there was more I guess.

[@kimray8915]

Totally agree! Whitney talked over a LOT of content that I'm hoping a better podcaster with even a minor awareness of others can mine. Whitney's circle of love (or her therapist) need to say, "The world is NOT your therapist. We see you. You're pretty. Stop talking. Seriously. Stop."

[@DanRyanCarter]

We're not in agreement, that's pretty mean spirited.

[@ericag5346]

@@_sowhat_ nobody did. Ask you, nobody did ask you...

[@atrium.]

You know, Whitney I absolutely adore you, your craft, and wit - and that is why I feel compelled to speak my opinion on this as a big fan of yours. I feel as though this episode was a little bit uncomfortable to watch. Your whole body language toward Esther was so passive: you almost put her down and negated things she said about your friendship, you said all your friends are male comics while she is sitting next to you, you faced the camera more than you looked at her or even faced her with your posture, you cut her off every single time and the first 45 mins felt like a monologue directed to the viewer. Idk why this is and maybe you just had an off day and you felt anxious about something and needed to take control to feel some sort of security (no judgment here, we all have those days!), but this felt a little unfair to Esther, I have seen you hold beautiful deep dialogue with guests but this seemed a little controlled and honestly, if we cut Esther out of this episode, it wouldn't change much in this episode and I don’t love that. I would love it if you could bring her back on :-) I want to express that this is not a malicious hate rant, but rather an observation and constructive criticism that I wanted to address in a polite manner. I appreciate you!

[@zelva1961]

You can tell Esther really likes and looks up to Whitney. A stark contrast to Esther on Rick Glassman’s podcast.

[@fartist123]

The next guest should be Rick dressed as Whitney, make-up and all.

[@WaitingForTheHook]

Rick and Esther are more peers and have a mutual "roasting" relationship. It's different. I enjoy both dynamics.

[@ShogunThomsen]

Esther and Rick's relationship is like siblings.

[@erdemmemisyazici3950]

@@besma2627 Episode #6 was pretty good, what got me into her podcast. Her leaving a voicemail to her assistant moaning about coffee was interesting and sort of funny since he was okay with that. This one though was a bit too self hating so it took my attention. She came off a bit like saying, "I am more successful than you in this business but psychologically a mess because of it. Tolerate me and you shall relish the bounties that fall from this mess I call Whitney." All that from her comparative analysis of herself to the guest. There are some characters you don't do that to, Esther is one of those characters. Edited to add: The reason why is because of the little sister energy. We expect Whitney to be more calm and collected, and she wasn't.

That's neat how you try to turn positivity into some kinda scenario where only negative things can be real. Also only if you tear down positive things you don't have to even look at, You chose this, and now you try to tear it down. Ya who wants inspiration and truth when you can spread your hate and anger, also coming from not pulling your fear into the light and laughing at how unproductive it is, how your the only one who can change that, and your lack of empathy and wisdom withered away behind this fear you love so much.

[@randyscriven9403]

I come from a very matriarchal family, viking ancestry, raised by warrior women, so I u derstood completely when you said that female comedians are so hated. It's because they are so powerful. You aren't meek and demure (nothing wrong with that) but instead you are just as strong and powerful as all those male comedians, even more so considering the courage it takes to fight to where you are now. I thank God for women like you and those in my family, its women like you that' have stood beside bois like me as we found our way out of our closets.
