Jenny Gorelick is a comedian, author, actress and former Jersey girl based in New York City. She performs monthly at Club Cumming at her signature show Love, Sex, & Magic and played an adoring fan of “THE Che Diaz” in And Just Like That. Her personal essays and humor pieces have appeared in The New York Times‘ Modern Love, Cosmopolitan, McSweeney’s, and the New Yorker‘s Shouts & Murmurs, all of which led to a book deal for The Book of Red Flags. Gorelick joined me over Zoom from Edinburgh to talk about what she learned from her first Fringe production — the two-hander Billy & The Situation with fellow comedian Gabby Bryan — as well as what she learned from launching a comedy dating podcast in March 2020 with a then-unknown Devon Walker, and how her work on the Safe For Work side of OnlyFans speaks to the financial difficulties of making it as a working comic today, including putting up the money for her solo Edinburgh Fringe debut, Sorry, which plays all of August 2026 at the Monkey Barrel in Edinburgh. There’s a lot to get to, so let’s get to it!
