The Hollywood Hustle
The Hollywood Hustle, The Male Gaze, and the Need for Female-Only Open Mics 🍿
In this wild episode of That Was Wild, Adam Macias and Bethany Michaels break down the unspoken truths of Hollywood and why the hustle feels more like a Mr. Beast hand-on-the-car challenge than a career trajectory. From putting your “hand on the car” and waiting for success to the harsh reality of grinding until your turn comes—Should one’s hollywood dream be just a waiting game? . 🚗💥
But that’s just the beginning. Bethany opens up about her own experiences in the male-dominated comedy scene, sharing the highs and lows of being one of the few women in the room. It’s a candid conversation about why female-only open mics are absolutely necessary in a world where women’s voices are often drowned out by male-dominated spaces. 🎤💬
Plus! We talk about the aftermath of the Teresa Lo episode last week and all the crazy that came out of the troll caves to defend Ian and one comedian who was having their own crashout and low key victimized Teresa in a different way.
Get ready for stories of survival, tough lessons, and some serious laughs as Adam and Bethany unpack the complexities of building a career in Hollywood, standing out in comedy, and fighting for the stage—without the distractions and inappropriate comments.
