b'Multi-talented funny-lady Angela Star is cracking me up on this episode of the LoudaVision Podcast! This Stand-up Comedian shares a cringe-worthy story about what inspired her to get into comedy, and even tells us about the entrepreneurial ventures she explored (*cough*DRUG DEALER*cough*) before pursuing stand-up comedy. Fast-Forward three years later- she\\u2019s now performing at major comedy clubs and is the founder of \\u201cStars of Comedy\\u201d, teaching kids about her craft. Angela shares advice for overcoming stage-fright, and we discuss her process for coming up with jokes and adjusting her set to various audiences, anywhere from churches to China. \\n\\nAngela is a female in a sea of men... in the field of comedy, a male dominated industry (you\\u2019re dirty!). She says, \\u201cI felt the pressure of being very vulgar to try to keep up with the men\\u201d. This didn\\u2019t mesh too well with her as a Christian. Her advice to other stand-ups trying to keep up with the competition is to BE YOURSELF... \\u201cWe live in a society where everyone encourages you to be like everyone else, but if you\\u2019re like everyone else than how do you stand out?\\u201d\\n\\nCamera-dude Tony is in this episode too. He\\u2019s filming me for a women\\u2019s history month video profile on Code 360.
