    A TedX must be a really tough gig, they're there for a different reason than "the usual ones" and in a different mood, I guess. Impressed you did it so well.

    It's a little bit awkward when the audience doesn't realize that the presenter is a comic, and the funny things she's saying are intentional and it's okay to laugh at them. I'm glad they got it, though, because I love Liz Miele.

    This was disappointing for me since it was fully her doing a normal standup gig and no additional perspective or context or info about those dark times methods. The segue never came. If you're not familiar with her work this is a decent example of it, but with a drier audience expecting something else. Ha ha.

    I went to her show last night and in support of her cat issue (saying she lost her cat) I yelled out I can hook u up with a cat. She has the body guard come up to me stops the show and says don’t call out or I can’t tell my joke n if u say one more thing he is gonna deal with you worse than I will” literally in front of everyone. I said 1 thing! She could have said please don’t call out, but no. I struggle with really bad depression anxiety n go to an intensive outpatient program bc I attempted suicide. I go to these feel better, she claims comedy helps depression? How about u treat ur audience kindly bc u never know what they are going through. 2nd she kept telling single joke stories because she claims to currently be single and then makes up a joke about her “current bf” are u single or not? Which means her stories aren’t true and all made up. Then she goes on to tell us she got another cat because hers died and then tells us it died in a month of having it, but doesn’t tell why. Clearly she did something to that cat or doesn’t know how to take care of a cat if she is embarrassed to explain why it passed.

      You should have said zero things during her show. It was the "Liz" show you were interrupting, NOT the "Audience" show. The only thing out of your mouth anyone should be hearing at any comedy show should be laughter and cheering. If you want to help her with her cat issues, try calmly talking with her after the show. Don't just yell out and break her flow the moment an idea form in your mind. Don't be an attention thief. One way to help with that would be to slow down on the drinking, at least whilst in public. How about you treat your host with respect, and have the decency to keep all of your toxic negative thoughts to yourself and your therapist? Perhaps you should show this comment to your therapist? He or she might also agree with me that you were in the wrong, in the wrong to think that you should make yourself a part of her show, and in the wrong to think that it was appropriate for you to go on her RUclips page in attempt to hurt her somehow with your unintelligent psycho babble. SHHHHHHHHHHH 🤫 We're all trying to enjoy ourselves here, and you are ruining it for the rest of us.

      @Jaclyn Jaclyn she had a boyfriend named Justin up until September 2020. I don't think she has gone out with anyone since. If you take some of the stuff she says on various podcasts or her co-podcast production, "2 non-doctors" on face value, her narrative adds up.

      @Jaclyn Jaclyn She also lost her cat "PASTA" of 16 years in September, 2021. She then got a kitten in late 2021 but died after short time do to a virus the kills alot of kittens,(not her fault). Now she has a kitten called REVENGE ABS that is growing rapidly. I think R.ABS is about 10 months old now.
