38. Debunking the Starving Artist Myth with Comedian Chelsea Devantez
b'Where did the myth of the \\u201cstarving artist\\u201d begin? Why did it become so pervasive, and is it even true? Or is it just another way for a society that doesn\\u2019t value art and arts careers to push creators into \\u201ctraditional\\u201d roles? Today, we\\u2019re joined by actor, comedian, and Emmy-nominated writer Chelsea Devantez. You\\u2019ve laughed at Chelsea\\u2019s wit on The Problem with Jon Stewart, Girls 5Eva, and Bless This Mess. You might also know her from her podcast, Celebrity Book Club, where she recaps famous celebrity memoirs. In this episode, Tori and Chelsea dive into the mythology of the starving artist, breaking into male-dominated industries, and how Chelsea is working to build a more inclusive space in comedy and media. They also dive into a fascinating discussion about the ethics of the stock market, financial feminism, and hacking the patriarchal financial system for the greater good.\\n\\nGet resources mentioned in the show, learn more about our guests, and read episode transcripts: https://herfirst100k.com/financial-feminist-show-notes/starving-artist-myth-chelsea-devantez\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
