On this episode of GoodOnePodcast, SamJayComic talks about working through her fear of death onstage and writing for Eddie Murphy at SNL

Sam Jay. Photo-Illustration: Vulture and Netflix There’s something about that debut special. There’s just something so exciting about seeing a comedian share their perspective for the first time. When it’s good, it’s like falling in love. Sam Jay’s 3 in the Morning, which premiered on Netflix on August 4, is one of the more thrilling first hours in awhile.

I’m not a roaster. I have a lot of funny friends, and they like to roast and shit like that. I’m way more observational and witty. It takes me a while to build a joke, to really get something to where I’m like, Yeah, this is confidently funny to me. But I do enjoy making people laugh and pushing buttons a little bit. I have fun doing both of those things. I used to see a lot of shit and just be like, I’m seeing all this craziness in the world. I want to make a difference.

My mom was ill. I grew up with a sick parent, and my mom passed away when I was 16. So death was around me for sure. I was aware of my mom’s mortality by the time I was 13. I was very aware that I probably wasn’t gonna have a mother late in my life, and that I was probably going to lose my mother young. As that became more of a reality, my mom had to keep it real and talk to me about that possibility, and what that meant for me, and how was I feeling knowing all this was going on.
