More Stand Up Memories #32 MICHELE TRAINA DIVORCE DIARIES

Michele Traina joins Jackie “The Joke Man” Martling and Peter Bales on More Stand-Up Memories for a funny, honest, and high-energy conversation about comedy, reinvention, divorce, motherhood, teaching, and turning real-life chaos into material. Michele is a comedian, performer, writer, educator, and creator of Divorce Diaries, her nationally touring one-woman comedy show built around the hilarious and painfully relatable realities of life after divorce. Known for finding the funny in the messy parts of being human, Michele brings a fearless, fast-moving style that blends stand-up, storytelling, and real-life survival instincts. In this episode, Jackie and Peter talk with Michele about building comedy from personal experience, life on stage, parenting, dating, teaching, and why sometimes the best punchlines come from the parts of life you never planned. It’s comedy, confession, and controlled chaos — which, frankly, is usually where the best stories live.

“Stand-Up Memories” is a podcast featuring former head writer and cast member of the Howard Stern show Jackie Martling and fellow comedian, friend and history professor Peter Bales bridging the worlds of comedy, history and wherever else they land. They share hilariously heartfelt (and sometimes raunchy) stories from their decades of stand-up comedy and unique lives, diving deep into their experiences in very varied locales and with extremely eclectic characters, all resulting in their being as wise and messed up .. and funny .. as they are today.
