Subhah Agarwal

<p class="p1">Subhah Agarwal is a bicoastal writer and stand-up comedian who grew up outside of Chicago, where she first started hitting open mics while still in high school. Subhah has written for <em>Comedy Knockout</em> on TruTV, <em>The Jim Jefferies Show</em> on Comedy Central, and Arsenio Hall’s live 2022 talk show for Netflix. She made her late-night TV debut telling jokes on NBC’s <em>A Little Late with Lilly Singh</em>, and acted in shows such as <em>Westworld</em> and <em>General Hospital</em>. She has released her first comedy album, “Dog Show,” via Blonde Medicine, and sat with me to talk about explaining her comedy career to her immigrant parents, breaking out of the open mic scene, writing for other comedians, and finding her own voice.</p> <p class="p1">If you like this conversation, please consider subscribing to my Substack called Piffany at <a href= "http://Piffany.Substack.com"><span class= "s1">Piffany.Substack.com</span></a> so you can read bonus commentary on this episode as well as more comedy news and insights.
