Rosebud Baker’s first appearance on Working It Out was in 2021. Since then she’s become a writer on SNL, written for That Damn Michael Che, and become a parent. Now Rosebud returns to talk with Mike about how being a parent affects comedy, and they dispel certain attitudes about filming a comedy special while pregnant. Plus, the art of pitching ideas for different types of sketch shows, and why Rosebud’s daughter has to call her grandfather “Mr. Baker.”

    Loved the dad conversation about nothing being funnier than a static character relationship haha. Life IS a sitcom.
  • it occurs to me the single people version of talking about your baby is like talking about your ayahuasca trip lol
  • Having a baby induced the deepest rage that I was only able to deal with by laughing at it. I’d live to see more comics address it because it’s a psychedelic experience
  • @cedarandsound
    Noticing the guitar, I wonder if you still play Mike. I remember how your earlier comedy had music bits near the end. Surely you still know how to play?
  • Literally was recently updated to include figuratively as its meaning after so many used it this way. Language is fun

    She’s not named after the fish, she’s named after my aunt. Who happens to be a fish.
  • @WardWyatt

  • @ish474
    love Rosie. If anybody deserves their success in her

    The cancer thing is not what I find to be the most convincing argument for breastfeeding. The effects on the baby are much more important to me and my partner. 1. The immune systems of babies are partly dependent on the mother through breast milk. 2. Breastfeeding affects the emotional bond between mother and baby, which can affect attachment and emotional health later in life. 3. People who were breastfed as a baby have lower obesity levels, experience less cardiovascular problems and perform better on intelligence tests. However, every parent will have to choose what works for them in their life.

    oof… bad ep Figured it was attributable to conversational lulls / weakness, then watched 10 mins of her standup. yikes no bueno ASPCA good choice, tho ❤
  • @ValerieCH1
    I didn't breast feed either. I wanted my body back, where i could have a drink or a smoke.

    By time 4:30 stamp, had to stop listening because of the use of the word “like”. Over 30 times by Rosebud, then it seems infectious because Mike started doing it, too. It’s really hard to listen to. It would really help
