On this week's episode of the GoodOnePodcast, saraschaefer1 discusses postelection stand-up, Twitter debates, and cross-stitching

Sara Schaefer Photo-Illustration: Vulture and Comedy Central Comedian Sara Schaefer doesn’t like the headline that accompanied her 2017 piece, “Why Trump Jokes Aren’t Funny.” For one, she actually has Trump jokes, and they’re quite funny, because they use Trump to “get at the core of who we are,” she says, “or at least who I am.” It’s all about nuance and thoughtfulness.

I had a joke about that very topic, about how you can’t say anything on the internet without some blowhard coming by and getting mad about Hillary Clinton. I literally saw a picture of the Grand Canyon, like the most beautiful picture I’d ever seen of the Grand Canyon. A rainbow is going down into the Grand Canyon. It was posted by the Department of the Interior. So the nerdiest people in the government are posting a really pretty picture of one of our great treasures.

On Her Inner Trump One of my issues with Trump is that I feel sorry for him and I feel empathy for him — and I feel that I shouldn’t, and I can’t help it. I actually have to limit the amount of times I will listen to him talk or see him because I have to have enough hatred against him in my heart to fight for what the good cause is, which is to get him out of office.

On Opting Out of Comedy Debates Last summer I got into a dustup online with some comedy fans. I call them Shithead Island. Shithead Island is the fandoms of certain comedy podcasts. This is not an indictment necessarily on the hosts themselves. Some of them are probably really nice people, or normal. I don’t know. But the fans are so crazy that I don’t want to ever visit Shithead Island. I will give you one real example: I did Opie and Anthony like twice, years and years ago.

JesseDavidFox GoodOnePodcast saraschaefer1 Just a heads up that after March 24th, the Good One podcast stopped updating on Castro app. I kept seeing posts about new episodes and not seeing them in my feed. I went to search today and there are 2 feeds (1 looks active, 1 doesn't). Might want to look into it. ❤️

saraschaefer1 GoodOnePodcast If no one heard of u in comedy did u really leave it? 🤔

saraschaefer1 GoodOnePodcast If you’re going to accuse some one of going on a racist tirade you should make sure you’re naming the right person. Opie isn’t racist. Didn’t get fired for racist tweets. That was Anthony. This would have taken no time to google.

GoodOnePodcast saraschaefer1 Shit no one cares about.
