Roots of Comedy with Jesus Trejo

Are y'all ready for your headliner of the night?

[Cheering and applause] Jesus, voice-over: Do you get nervous at all?

Vanessa, voice-over: I get nervous, but it's almost like the nerves almost give you that, like, fire.

Man: You've seen her on HBO.

You've seen her on Comedy Central.

Vanessa: As soon as it's go time... Man: Vanessa... Vanessa: the light hits, they call your name, you kind of have to jump off the cliff.

Vanessa: Let's go!

[Cheering and applause] What up?

I love being back home.

It's crazy to me.

Jesus was asking me-- he was, like, "You're not nervous any exes are gonna come?"

And I said, "I don't have any exes "in Laredo, thank God.

"Everybody I know that has an ex in Laredo also has restraining orders."
