Carson Olshansky became a niche internet micro celebrity in 2022 after posting some of their jokes on TikTok... but three years before that, in 2019, they took an improv class at the Brooklyn Comedy Collective, where they became friends with me!

On this episode, we discuss their childhood in Brooklyn, following in both their parents' creative footsteps, and how they discovered their trans identity during a global pandemic.

Carson co-hosts the monthly show Friendly's Comedy at C'mon Everybody in Brooklyn
