Throwing her hard-working Liberian parents for a loop, Retta abandons her plan to attend med school after graduating Duke University to move to Hollywood to star in her own sitcom―like her comedy heroes Lucille Ball and Roseanne. Say what? Word. Turns out Retta might actually be on to something. After winning Comedy Central’s stand-up competition, she should be ready for prime time―but a fear of success derails her biggest dream. Whether reminiscing about her days as a contract chemist at GlaxoSmithKline, telling “dirty” jokes to Mormons, feeling like the odd man out on Parks, fending off racist trolls on Twitter, flirting with Michael Fassbender, or expertly stalking the cast of "Hamilton," Retta’s unique voice and refreshing honesty will make you laugh, cry, and laugh so hard you’ll cry. Her eponymous sitcom might not have happened yet, but by the end of So Close to Being the Sh*t, you’ll be rooting for Retta to be the next one-named wonder to take over your television. And she just might inspire you to reach for the stars, too. 600 00 Retta. 650 0 Actors|zUnited States|vBiography|vSound recordings. 650 0 Comedians|zUnited States|vBiography|vSound recordings. 650 0 Conduct of life|vHumor|vSound recordings. 650 0 Autobiography|vSound recordings. 650 0 African American women|vBiography|vSound recordings. 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft 655 7 Humor.|2lcgft 655 7 Audiobooks.|2lcgft
