First Draft Feelings is a witty, unfiltered, and refreshingly honest podcast hosted by acclaimed comedian and author Liz Miele.
Known for her sharp writing and brutally funny takes on mental health, relationships, and the creative process, Liz dives deep into the emotional rollercoaster that comes with making art—and being human.
Each week, Liz welcomes fellow comedians, writers, and creators to talk about the “first drafts” of their work and their lives—those messy, imperfect beginnings that eventually lead to something meaningful. From bombing on stage to battling self-doubt, navigating rejection, or celebrating small wins, First Draft Feelings explores how vulnerability fuels creativity.
Listeners can expect equal parts humor and heart as Liz dissects what it means to keep creating when inspiration fades, how to deal with feedback, and why perfection is the enemy of progress. Whether you’re an artist, a fan of stand-up comedy, or just someone trying to figure it all out, First Draft Feelings is a reminder that everyone’s process is messy—and that’s exactly what makes it beautiful.
Funny, therapeutic, and full of the kind of candid honesty that makes Liz Miele a fan favorite, First Draft Feelings is the podcast for anyone who loves the behind-the-scenes truth of the creative life.
This week, Liz is joined by friends and fellow comedians Jim Tews and Carmen Lagala as they cover someone carving into Liz’s car and her accidentally spreading hate.
Jim having stomach issues and no longer able to eat anything and Carmen moves in with a bunch of 20 somethings and loves it.
They also added a new section called “Another Miele” where Sam Miele, Liz’s brother gives ideas and well as asking the audience!
