Kelly MacLean hosts one of my favorite podcasts: The Tao of Comedy. I fell in love with it and her a few months ago and knew I had to have her on the show. We both LOVE comedy, practice in the same lineage of Buddhism. Basically, a match made in podcasting heaven! This is definitely one of my favorite episodes ever. 

Kelly is a comedian and writer. She's Featured in The Guardian, Huffington Post, and is the author of surviving whole foods (an article on huffington post that went viral) Her podcast features some of my favorite comedians: Duncan Trussell and Pete Holmes! 

 We talk about:

• Death and what it can teach us (Kelly's brother died a year or so ago, and the recent death of my Grandma)
• The Tao of Comedy podcast 
• Comedy and the importance of finding the joke in everything 
• Comedy as a path to enlightenment 
• Sexuality and creativity 
• The buddhist concept of Basic Goodness 
• Kelly's love of Comedy and why she fell in love with it in the first place
