“It is not only the New York that I live in, but it’s also the America that I want to live in.” Comedian, writer, and actor Michelle Buteau sits down with Desi Lydic to share how the Netflix series that she created and stars in, “Survival of the Thickest,” began as a book of essays written just after her twins were born, how having so much creative responsibility on the show allows her to reflect the diversity of the city she lives in, and why she says featuring body-positive sex scenes shows young women that they are worthy of love at any size and shape. She also discusses her recent accomplishment as the first woman to ever film a comedy special at Radio City Music Hall and reflects on the importance of finding joy during difficult times. #DailyShow #ComedySubscribe to The Daily Show:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show:Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShowFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshowInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshowStream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/thedailyshowFollow Comedy Central:Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentralFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentralInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentralAbout The Daily Show:Jon Stewart and The Best F**king News Team host The Daily Show, an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program analyzing the biggest stories in news, politics, and culture through a sharp, satirical lens.
