New Fame, New Money (w/ Katherine Blanford)

From The Nanny to The Tonight Show with Katherine Blanford

A year ago, Katherine Blanford was working as a nanny by day and doing comedy at night. Last summer, she made her network television debut on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and is now headlining around the country and opening for David Spade.

She and I discuss the experience of having "heat" and cash in her pocket for the first time. We talk about artistic envy, the work ethic needed to succeed in comedy, what she learned about wealth and careers while working as a nanny, and of course, how much she loves the Ollinger family basement.
