Comedian Leanne Morgan Is in Her Lane

The Bright Side

As a middle-aged mother of three from Tennessee, Leanne Morgan breaks all the stereotypes of what it takes to succeed in comedy. Yet, after two decades of homing her distinct style of "clean comedy," Leanne's down-to-earth, relatable humor has catapulted her into the spotlight, with the help of a viral video and support from stars like Reese Witherspoon.

Today on the show the "Mrs. Maisel of Appalachia" shares her unlikely journey from growing up in a farming family to selling out the Grand Ole Opry, how she never gave up on her Hollywood dream, and why her audience hasn't feel "seen" until now.
