61. Is Revenge The Answer? With Comedian and Attorney Ishpal Sidhu

Is revenge a dish best served cold…or just with a side of probable cause to avoid legal action? Have you ever considered all of the legal ways that you can obtain justice without having to get your hands too messy? So has Ishpal Sidhu, the brilliant legal mind and comedian behind the hit social media series entitled "What The Ish."

After a relationship so toxic it sent her into a tailspin, this bright attorney felt so helpless that she took to social media to share brilliant and hilarious ways in which she imagined exacting legal revenge, for example on a cheater…without getting yourself arrested. On today’s podcast, we’re talking about her innate sense of justice, how unsatisfying the practice of the law has been, and the ways in which the little internet series she started to help others who were feeling as powerless as she was, woke her up to the mission she was probably made for.

From her Sikh heritage to comedy as medicine to what’s next for her…Ishpal has a lot more insight into the power of the urge for revenge than her hilarious reels reveal. And while she is here for the fight, and the healing and the search for justice, after all that she has learned she’s not so sure, that revenge is in fact ever the actual answer.
