This week on the pod, Seth and Josh welcome comedian Rosebud Baker! Rosebud talks about growing up in suburban Alexandria, Virginia, with a famous grandfather, former Secretary of State James Baker, and the strict expectations that came with visiting her grandparents and the White House. She shares stories of chaotic, alcohol-fueled family reunions, growing up with a huge extended family, and childhood trips to Chincoteague for the pony swim and Watch Island in New York’s Thousand Islands, where the kids had free rein while the adults drank. Rosebud also discusses keeping her standup career secret from her family for years, writing about her experiences with SNL, her memoir Fully Baked, and how her disciplinarian father has mellowed with age.
