00:00When I was a kid, the thing that I wanted to do the most in this world was to be a stand-up
00:14comic.
00:15I love stand-up comedy.
00:16Yes, I am.
00:17I am the Bay Area's only female stuttering stand-up comic.
00:22Nina G uses comedy and humor to change the perception of people who stutter.
00:27I'm a big fan of Nina G's.
00:28I've seen her several times.
00:29If you look at the definition of what a disability is, it's a physical or mental impairment that
00:36substantially results in having to deal with assholes.
00:43She's magic, and when she's on stage, she just exudes that confidence.
00:47I was once introduced to a guy asking my name, stuttered on it just a teeny, tiny bit, and
00:54he said, is that Nina G?
00:56But, by the way.
00:57And that's when I responded with, no, that's Nina with two N's.
01:01And I did this.
01:03First of all, there's not enough women in comedy.
01:05It's me, stuttering dick joke teller.
01:07She's had an interesting life journey, and what she talks about is real.
01:11A lot of these comics get up there, and they're telling absurd jokes.
01:14She's talking about stuff that's real.
01:15I'm especially happy to be here in Alameda with all of you because you're not Berkeley.
01:22They are so politically correct that they were afraid to laugh at the disabled person.
01:27I know it takes audiences a while to get used to my speech.
01:31In the beginning, I cared about that time.
01:34I care less about that time now.
01:36A lot of times people think that I'm fake stuttering, like it's for the comedic effect.
01:42If I was faking it, I'd be the Meryl Streep of stuttering.
01:47I think the main challenge isn't stuttering, it's to be funny.
01:51For any comedian.
01:53For any comedian, and for me, it's the same way.
01:56I deliver those words and those stutters because that is the punchline, and that was a stuttering
02:03triple axel.
02:04I just want you to all know that.
02:06Yes!
02:07Yes!
02:10I will stutter through it.
02:11Yes!
02:12Thank you.
02:21Thank you.
