Well hello there, babes. Welcome back to Your Place or Mine, hosted by Jessie Olsen. In this episode, I'm joined by comedian and new friend, Afrakaren.

Afrakaren and I chat about how she got into comedy, both the first and second time. We unpack what it's like to be a big, bold, black woman in mostly white, male-led rooms and how she's making waves early in the game. We talk about the importance of a supportive community of women and why you've got to take risks and opportunities as they come. Hear how she's killing both the funny and fashion game at 50, and why she's the one to watch in comedy in 2023. Thanks for joining me, Afrakaren!
