Of course, she also treated us to a variety of dumb and fabulous jokes that had us laughing out loud.

We discussed the possibility of becoming a comedian ourselves and learned about Tig’s methods for creating jokes. She also talked about the importance of surprise in comedy and shared some of her favorite jokes with us.
