When I met Bhavana on one of those calls, I was so curious about her because she was so “real” for a lack of a better word. And her research was so interesting, as much as I could understand it. I was so glad when she said she would join me on the pod. And what a journey she’s had really from looking at the stars to probably having seen the inside of my brain! Woah.

In this episode of More Than Work, Rabiah sits down with Lynn Harris, founder and CEO of Gold Comedy — a comedy school, professional network, and content studio built for women, non-binary folks, and anyone who's ever felt like an outsider in the comedy world. Lynn shares her winding career path from journalism to Oxygen to human rights advocacy, and how it all led to creating a space where comedians can build real careers without the bro vibe. She and Rabiah dig into the sexism still baked into the comedy industry, why it matters who makes comedy and not just who watches it, and why putting in the reps beats raw talent every time. Plus, Lynn reveals her Groundhog Day song, her undefeated prescription record, and why she's currently inspired by eye surgeons.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to More Than Work00:34 Meet Lynn Harris: Founder & CEO of Gold Comedy02:34 What Is Gold Comedy?03:57 The Comedy Industry's Gender Problem04:58 Tokenizing Women Comics — and What It Costs Everyone08:30 The Jeff Ross Story: Sexism Is Bad for Comedy20:38 Lynn's Career Path: Journalism, Oxygen & Breakup Girl25:18 Human Rights Advocacy Through Comedy29:23 How Gold Comedy Came to Be37:07 How to Join Gold Comedy31:37 What Success Looks Like at Gold Comedy33:12 Advice & Mantras: You Don't Have to Change Who You Are37:07 Fun Five Questions46:26 OutroNote from Rabiah (host):Lynn Harris saw what a lot of us in comedy have seen and is doing something about it. With GOLD Comedy she has created a community for everyone. I was intrigued to learn about her career and what she is doing with GOLD. As a woman in comedy myself, I have been introduced as a “female comedian” and even had someone say, “we needed a woman so out next comic is here” as though there was no other reason or value in my being there. The inclusion of me also became exclusion at the same time. I enjoyed our chat and hearing about her experiences in New York City.

"I have endless urgency in everything that I do.” – Mike Nellis – More Than Work

(tw: mention of suicidal ideation) In this episode of 'More Than Work,' host Rabiah Coon sits down with Mike Nellis, a Democratic strategist and creator of the Substack newsletter "Endless Urgency." Mike shares his compelling personal journey from struggling with depression and weight management to becoming a prominent voice in Democratic politics and digital strategy. He opens up about his philosophy of "endless urgency" - living every moment fully and intentionally - which emerged from his own transformational journey from 600 pounds to a healthier, more engaged life.The conversation covers Mike's 20-year career in political strategy, his work on major campaigns including Bernie Sanders' 2016 run, and his role as a co-founder of "White Dudes for Harris." He discusses the current state of the Democratic Party, the importance of engaging with voters across the political spectrum, and why Democrats need to be more strategic about communicating with all Americans - including those who disagree with them. Mike also reflects on the challenges of the 2024 election, the need for Democrats to understand and wield power more effectively, and the critical importance of showing up in uncomfortable spaces to have difficult conversations.Throughout the episode, Mike emphasizes the value of building systems, staying present, and finding joy even during challenging political times. He shares mantras and advice for maintaining momentum, from "1% better every day" to being a "joyful warrior" in the face of adversity.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction00:35 Welcome and guest introduction01:31 What is "Endless Urgency"?01:47 Mike's journey: from 600 pounds to transformation09:19 What the Substack offers: No BS Democratic strategy14:29 How Mike got into political strategy19:51 Staying in the Democratic Party vs. going independent20:31 Kamala Harris and the 2024 election: what went wrong24:37 Strategic messaging and power31:51 Handling family members who voted for Trump35:48 Why cutting people out weakens democracy38:41 Going on Fox News and right-wing media43:16 "White Dudes for Harris" and organizing men44:31 Mantras and advice: 1% better every day47:16 Being a "joyful warrior"52:19 Who inspires Mike right nowNote from Rabiah (host):Mike Nellis and I quickly found out we have more in common than we could have realized! You’ll hear about what when you listen. And please do listen because Mike is doing the hard work that is so needed right now which the work of speaking out against the Trump administration and working to get Democrats elected. He is doing it his way and after our conversation I have even more respect for him. Honestly, Mike is doing a version of what I would have done if I’d had the courage. I’ve been volunteering for various Democratic candidates, the general party and with non-partisan voter registration for years but he pursued the work as a career. What he is doing really is More Than Work. Mike was very open and honest so I’ve added a trigger warning to this episode. It is that kind of honestly I like to approach conversations with too and I am grateful that he made it through his early battles and is here today. Enjoy our conversation. And check your voter registration while you do.+++++Find MikeWebsite: https://endlessurgency.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mike_nellis+++++More than Work Social Media: @morethanworkpod (Facebook, Instagram) and @rabiahcomedy (TikTok)Please review and follow anywhere you get podcasts.

I won’t get into it but there has been a lot going on. And, as I mention in the episode, sometimes we hear a message at the right time. When I resumed editing and heard Sue talk, I was eagerly listening again and absorbing again. Two things to note:At the end of 2024, Sue closed Boss Mouse Cheese but as she posts on Instagram still teaches cheesemaking classes on her farm and she can still be reached via Instagram.This episode was recorded before the 2024 election and we both had hope in our voices. I know my voice has changed but I still have a little bit of hope. It is important to know when it was recorded though because, well, you’ll hear. I don’t know about Sue but my answer to who I admire would include what she said that day.I met Sue in London and a comedy and writing event. She isn’t a comedian. She makes cheese. I’m cheesy. We got along and it was a joy to get to speak with her. Enjoy the joy and the podcast will be back with another chat soon. +++++ Find SueWebsite: https://bossmousecheese.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bossmousecheese/  +++++ More than Work Social Media: @morethanworkpod (Facebook, Instagram) and @rabiahcomedy (TikTok)Please review and follow anywhere you get podcasts.
