Episode 7 is a conversation with Chris, the mother of my best friends Tiffany and Danielle. On stage they're a stand-up comedy duo known as The Puterbaugh Sisters. Even though we grew up only an hour apart, we didn't meet until 2007 in Chicago but became instant friends and we've grown to be more like sisters. Diane says she would’ve been best friends with Chris if we’d all grown up in the same town! The Puterbaugh Sisters were a massive influence on the entire Chicago stand-up scene by bringing their silly, uninhibited, unapologetic style to any stage they stepped on, whether it was 2 inches or 6 feet off the ground. Everyone got sillier, looser and a bit braver with the Puterbaughs around. Enjoy getting to know their mother Chris!
