Episode #388

Gretchen Dietz talks with Valerie Lopez about:

Trading her PhD for a notebook and a bar open mic with zero last-name confidence
Divorcing her inner perfectionist and learning to love the beautiful mess of live comedy
How moving to Austin blew up her small map and recalibrated everything she thought she knew
Building a real comedy career on thank-you notes, strong material, and staying unapologetically herself

Recorded May 2026 at Fallout Theater Podcast Studio
