Great series! Just found you. Brilliant satire. I visited Mt. Vernon when the old white ladies were the only ones giving the tour and slaves were "servants." And they never would talk truth. It was very frustrating. I am sure that your encounters with some people you depict in the series are for real, knowing how ignorant many are. Preach sister, preach. you are doing it in a brilliant way. Sharing your series widely. <3
spread those genes, sister
between good looking, smart, funny and healthy, at least for starters,
oh, yes, darlin', please do make sure to be cultivating toward a better gene pool
thanks so much for the series
lots of fun, painful as it is
<3
Please tell us some television or movie producer snatched you up! You are a great writer, comedienne and actress. If the High Mucky-Mucks were smart they would be surfing YouTube for new talent.
At least YouTube offers a platform for talented unknowns to be seen and your series has no expiration date. Still it doesn't pay the bills, right?
good work! keep it going. im late in the game.. got a you tube account too that i invite you to see. in the meantime, im subscribing!
Thank you so much for making this series. I can't even tell you how much I appreciate it.
Oh my God your so pretty:D
You ROCK!
Your show is brilliant! Thoughtful, funny, and smart. Well written and well acted! Well done! We actually read this for our Public History class at Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario this morning and everyone thinks you are fantastic!
Not only is your show hilarious, what with the sarcastic wit and all, but it's also a good history lesson. Thank you and please keep them coming. :)
your show is funny and good. What are you up to now?
Your show is wonderful!
Azie the links that you are pointing to are no longer there. Could you post them?
Did you know Jews were slaves? Even in the hot land of Egypt
I ADORE your show! I will totally keep supporting you. 🙂 Keep up the good work!
Love this show keep opening minds who may have forgotten some history with a fun comic twist to it . Keep smiling
thank you
I love your series — it's hysterical. (And scary to see just how stupid people can be.)
Do you have a paypal account set up to contribute to costs?
I think your show is a wonderful idea, (I can't believe the CRAZY questions that you get) I am an up and coming actress myself (but that's another story) I LOVE your wit and sarcasm, it's VERY refreshing, keep up the great work !
Thank you so much for creating this. It's not only funny but dead serious.
1:15 any questions for you at all, eh? OK, I was wondering this;
The material for these videos comes from the laughably bad, worst questions you would be asked.
The other end of the scale wouldn't make good comedy. Still, I'd like to know what were some of the MOST intelligent and insightful questions you were asked?
What were some questions that were so Good (as opposed to so bad) that you didn't know the answer. (And, I can't resist asking what you then did tell them).
I think the reactions from this in real life re-enactments must be very nervous for the most part. I know that most people don't have a very vast historical knowledge so the reactions must veer between ignorant to serious to people trying to have fun with it in spite of the horror it refers to. Do you think the majority of people respond to this well or do most people just want to tune out what they are witnessing because they just can't deal with the time period you have been representing?
Keep up the great series! 😀 Loving the new episodes.
Where were you born and raised and where did you bet your history lesson? I doubt you know much about the true history of the South.
your style of speaking somehow reminds me Lindsey from sexplanations youtube channel
Your material is really good, keep up the awesome work :)
How do we start an Azie fanclub?
We love it because you have done such a fantastic job!
Season 2 is out and awesome!! But what ever happened to the mentioned "behind the scenes" vlogs? Would love to start seeing them role out of the factory too. Love ya!! All the best. Shaya
Love your videos. You are an amazing entertainer.
Feels great seeing a bit of behind the scenes going on and some info on who's who. I also did not see that Season 2 was going to be made, and it looks like some videos of the second season are up, so I'll be getting to watching those after this. So yeah, it's a more personal touch here explaining some things before the videos for the web series are uploaded and enjoyed for everyone.
I have to say as a fellow historical reenactor,and first person interpreter, you have done a fabulous job!! I have heard many of these questions before and am often stupefied at the lack of knowledge or common sense in our supposedly well educated population! I am glad you enjoy your job!
Seriously my fave new show
what goes through your mind when you do this Ask a Slave thing? How are you able to get into that mindset and remain as composed as you do. Do you enjoy it? or is it pain, or is it joyful pain, or painful joy?
She seems so lovely
