Welcome to Comedy is the Cure, the podcast where real-life medical mishaps meet big laughs!
This show proves that laughter truly is the best medicine, hosted by Taquita Love—a nurse by day and stand-up comedian by night.
She is someone who knows that healing isn’t just about medicine—it’s about laughter, too. By combining her medical expertise and comedy chops, she’s bringing joy and education to audiences everywhere.
Taquita Love: Hailing from Chicago, IL, Taquita Love is just what the doctor ordered. With her expertise as a Registered Nurse, she prescribes and administers comedic relief for the soul. Taquita has been featured on Funny or Die and Laughs on FOX. The graduate of Second City LA and UCB LA (Improv and Sketch Writing) takes you on a journey into her world with her refreshing and brilliant storytelling style, and her play on words will have you experiencing withdrawals. She’s not your average Nurse. She is not your average comedian. She is just what the Doctor Ordered!
If you’ve ever wondered how comedy and healthcare collide, this episode has all the answers wrapped in wit and wisdom!
This week, Taquita is joined by the endlessly talented Christina Anthony who brings her wit and wisdom to stories that are equal parts hilarious and thought-provoking. Known for her unforgettable role as Aunt Denise on Mixed-ish and her roots in Chicago’s Second City, Christina gets real (and really funny) about how comedy isn’t just for laughs—it’s a survival tool she’s used to navigate everything from Second City stages to Hollywood sets.
