Tess Tregellas is a Writer, Comedian and Hopeless Romantic originally from Fairfield, CT where the vibe was very Stepford Wives where Christmas cards were perfect but was not quite as staged.

 

In this episode we talk about:

  • Her big fat spoof wedding
  • If you have a vision you can get what you want
  • Her journey and growth with @Betches (yes, that’s how you know her)
  • Trials and tribulations of freelance life
  • Is TV like a vibrator?
  • The difficulty with presence on stage and in bed
  • The Tristate area template for life
  • How rom-coms have brainwashed our expectations
  • Why are women always drunk when having sex in media (or waking up wondering if they did)?!
  • Communication is sexy!
  • How often women brush things off (insults, micro-aggressions, harassment) until another woman points it out
  • Let’s focus on feeling nice and skip the performative sex!
  • You can shave off your clit in the shower?! (No, you cannot)
  • The Vagina Monologues!
