Theater or Therapist? Rachel Dratch | Choice Words with Samantha Bee

When Rachel Dratch was growing up, she figured she’d have some sort of “normal” career like therapist. Then she saw a performance of Annie and thought she could be one of the people on stage too. Sam talks to Rachel about how important it is to ask for the parts you want (and then win a Tony for it), how the biggest thing that ever happened to her wasn’t even a choice, how improv can even make a “lazy Pisces” live in the moment, ordering the worst thing on the menu, and accidentally going viral on Tik Tok.

We need Sam back on tv as well as more podcasts. Debbie Downer is probably Rachel’s best character. Everyone broke during that sketch. Good episode

[@gabrielmaroto18]

Wow, I was just thinking about Rachel she was so good on SNL everything she does actually.

[@rosemarieholt2261]

GREAT on her Monk episode

Check her out in the original pilot for 30 Rock.

[@gabrielmaroto18]

Yesssss She was like in several episodes. She revived her Barbara Walters impression for 30 rock also. Love it.

I was just watching "Shameless" with my partner and thinking the exact same thing when she showed up as the crazy parole officer lol. That's how we got off on a tangent about how awesome she is, which is why I think this particular episode showed up in my feed? What a great podcast episode in any universe anyway, Samantha bee and Rachel dratch ❤

[@batgurrl]

Love Rachel and its an honor to have your most well known character become a MEME. Excellent and interesting conversation 💙

[@Lawman212]

At least Matt didn’t join the trend and get his ear pierced

Clusterfunke Christmas is the newest Christmas movie classic.

Logic is controlled by beliefs. Read the book subtitled “Why good people can disagree on religion and politics “.

A 5head implies that Matt Gaetz is smart, which he is not. I think it's more of a FOREhead.

[@RHCole]

Bro really went into his plastic surgeon and demanded the Patrick Bateman
