Comedian Janine Harouni and Mike have a lot in common. They both survived severe car accidents, they have similar relationships with their parents, and they both value the quality of being vulnerable on stage. Mike and Janine discuss the process of turning a traumatic experience into a comedic story, and how Janine’s recovery from her car accident helped her better connect with her parents and inspired her to start doing comedy. Plus, jokes and stories about what it’s like being married to another comedian, Janine’s experience working at a mob-run restaurant, and why her dad wears serial killer gloves.

This is great! I love comedy that has pathos. Joking about sad things helps people that have gone through similar things

I don't know who originally said this but I had a teacher teaching Shakespeare once tell me that the difference between a tragedy and a comedy is where you put the ending.

What a precious thing❣to hearJanine tell you that seeing/hearing your comedy show in-person/your unusual, particular style is how she recognized doing stand-up was/is a possibility for her creative talents, too. Touching.

Thank you once again, this warms my heart to hear people working it out too. Plus re putting stuff out there before ready, I’m sharing videos right now that are terrible cause I’m new at it. I don’t want to be new or bad and I’m kind of shutting my eyes and pretending I don’t see! By the end of the year I’ll be better right?

Divorce wasn't legalised in Ireland till 1997, unbelievable but true.

I’m great friends of her parents! She is a wonderful lady, even if she not on the right side of the fence! 😅😂 I consider her entire family as my family.

A lot of healthcare workers, over time, develop latex allergies from increased latex contact (espec. if powdered gloves➡the latex gets airborne via the powder & inadvertently we breathe it in) Latex is in soooo many things in our environment, so if you develop an allergy & bump against, eg bike, or stroller tire, you can go into anaphylactic shock...So that's why hospitals are using non-latex now. Could you pass that on to Janine to let her father know➡b/c it's not like the immediate kind of allergy response most of us have been taught about➡it can take years before you get the reaction & the one you get can be deadly.
