Podcast: Kelly Bandas on Creating for Laughs
In this hilarious interview with comedian Kelly Bandas, we were challenged to consider how shifting our life perspective can become a creative exercise as we work to see the humor in the everyday frustrations of raising children. Kelly’s Instagram and TikTok sketches have been the highlight of our feeds and we can’t wait to share her humor and wisdom with you today. If you have ever wondered whether it’s possible to learn to be funny (or at least funnier) or if it’s poor form to laugh loudest at your own jokes (spoiler: it’s not), this episode is for you!
Bio: Kelly Bandas is a writer and comedian living in Franklin, Tennessee. Mom of three kids, both bio and adopted, she is best known for her popular Instagram and TikTok videos satirizing everything from Millennial motherhood to social media culture. Look for her book Rookie Mistakes to be released this summer.
