On the July 23rd episode of The View, two of the guests were comedians Chonda Pierce and Susie Essman. The two are pretty much the polar opposites, Chonda being a squeaky clean Christian and Susie being known for her foul mouth from her character on Curb Your Enthusiasm. Chonda Pierce’s newest book is a reminisce of a period of depression and the ways in which she was able to work through the pain into a healthier state. Susie Essman’s new book is her memoir of how she was able to transform herself from a shy anxiety-ridden young comedian into the brash powerhouse she is today.
