About this episode

Robby Hoffman shares her journey from a religious upbringing to becoming a successful comedian while navigating anxiety and self-confidence.

Robby Hoffman wants everything and needs nothing. She’s a woman of paradoxes: a walking ball of anxiety who couldn’t care less what you think. And she’s incredibly funny. Robby takes Dan on a confessional and hilarious journey: from her deeply religious upbringing at home with nine siblings, to “earning her PhD” in children’s television, to breaking out in comedy and earning the admiration of heavy hitters like John Mulaney. She also explains how she fostered her own self-confidence despite anxiety and how she's always maintained a healthy dose of self-love. The series finale of "Hacks" airs Thursday, May 28th, at 9PM ET on HBO.
