b"Ella James is an Australian media personality who went to LA to make it in comedy, to act in films, to be in the theatre and to continue her work as a world recognised voice talent. This is an interesting chat in which we talk about working at the Comedy Store on Sunset Blvd in LA, the creative process, the sacrifices we make for our dreams, and the importance of having the right people in your corner.
