Jessica Kirson at Bricktown Comedy Club.

I saw Jessica Kirson at the Bricktown Comedy Club in Tulsa yesterday evening (08/14/23). I had been so excited to see her in person as I had been following her online for years now. I think I discovered her on Facebook, actually, because she use to post videos of herself in the car singing along to gospel music and other shenanigans, and I just thought she was pretty funny. I had been following her YouTube channel and I have seen her on podcasts in the past, so I've been following her for some years now. I just happened to see one night scrolling through Facebook at work that her page posted an update to her comedy tour and Tulsa was added as one of those stops. I was super excited as I am in the Tulsa area (obviously) and I bought a ticket as soon as I could. Six months in advance. It was surreal to see her in person, and I felt the same way seeing Fortune Feimster back in late June, because you mainly see comedians or other well-known people on television or streaming platforms now. You know they are real, but seeing them in person makes it even more solid. It's kind of a mind-warping experience. I like how interactive she is with the audience and how involved she gets in the conversations she has with the people during her performance. It makes it more personable. Thank God I was not near the front because I have social anxiety and I would just malfunction if she started talking to me. I also do not like to be perceived, I just like to observe. I just do not like attention on me, is all. 

      I know - I do not have a photo of Jessica Kirson, so I will be using a photo of the beef nachos I ordered at the comedy club that night instead. Photos were obviously not permitted during the show and I was not going to get myself in trouble over one.
