There are a lot of characteristics that can help move us down the line a bit more quickly.  There are things like innate talent and charisma, and practiced skills like patience. I’m not sure where grit falls on that list, but Tammy Pescatelli has plenty. Her story runs from road comic to television regular, most notably including Season 2 of Last Comic Standing and multiple Tonight Show appearances . Her latest special, The Way After School Special, is available now on iTunes. Tammy and I talk about the stretch of her career following LCS, but it quickly gets to what I love most about her. She’s a purist, and that level of authenticity is what’s worth paying the most attention to.  Show business in this case, but anywhere really, is full of distractions.  We’ll talk about some of them, but first I pick up with Tammy Pescatelli in the Last Comic Standing days.
