Brittany Schmitt: How I Survived Jail
Brittany Schmitt grew up in rural Wisconsin carrying childhood trauma and a complicated relationship with her mother that shaped everything that followed. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Brittany opens up about her battle with alcoholism the DUI that sent her to jail in Arizona and what life behind bars actually looked like. She shares how hitting rock bottom became the moment everything changed — and how she discovered stand up comedy in the most unlikely circumstances and used it to rebuild her entire life. She gets into what it's really like being a woman trying to make it in comedy the brutal reality of online harassment and how she built a following by being completely honest about everything she's been through.
