"content": "\u003cp>The first time I saw Emily Heller's sweetly acerbic, totally self-deprecating, 100 percent hilarious standup, it was in 2013, with her debut on \u003cem>Conan -- \u003c/em>and at the risk of sounding over-the-top, it felt triumphant. This was pre-\u003cem>Broad City\u003c/em>, mind you; regular girls who were dorky, smoked weed, and called the world like they saw it were not exactly the talk of the televised town.\u003cbr>\n[contextly_sidebar id=\"29btwdHV680jjo2JVHeQiJPsq7xq7Cgd\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fast forward just three years, and Heller, an Alameda native and UC Santa Cruz alum who now lives in LA, is enjoying a well-deserved rise to fame. Her acting and writing credits include \u003cem>Inside Amy Schumer, Chelsea Lately, BoJack Horseman, Ground Floor \u003c/em>and more, while her first album, \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://emilyheller.bandcamp.com/album/good-for-her\" target=\"_blank\">Good For Her\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, was released by Kill Rockstars in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Heller returns home to do three nights at the Punch Line in San Francisco next week, March 17 - 19, as she has many times before, for the club's slate of all-female lineups for Women's History Month. So we called her up to chat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1gRMTFZLSY\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED Pop:\u003c/strong> Happy Women’s History Month! How are you celebrating?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Emily Heller:\u003c/strong> Thank you! Well, it’s one of those things where like, there’s not a Women’s History Month \u003cem>festival\u003c/em>, right? Lilith Fair is in the summer, so I don’t know what the other traditions are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mean, look, it’s the broadest category in the world, it’s half the people on the planet. But the Punch Line show...it is nice, as a comedian, that Women’s History Month is there once a year to say “Hey, here’s a way to market this.” It's great that they do all-women features. I think a lot of people don’t like all-female lineups, but I can say that as a performer, nothing makes me feel like women onstage are diverse than having us be the only ones up there. Because you do get kind of freed from feeling like you’re representing your gender, which can happen when you’re the only female comic in a lineup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You have \u003ca href=\"http://www.cc.com/video-clips/zv6u26/john-oliver-s-new-york-stand-up-show-feminism-is-not-very-fun\" target=\"_blank\">a bit on the album about feminism\u003c/a> and its marketing problem, and I know you've been doing it for a while. I’m curious if and how that joke has changed over the years?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I wrote that joke, I wasn’t thinking about ‘Oh, I’m gonna talk about something that’s gonna be really divisive.’ I had just started standup, just moved to San Francisco after being at UC Santa Cruz, and the thought didn’t cross my mind that talking about [feminism] would be weird to anyone. It is interesting, because in the years since I first started telling that joke, it’s gotten harder and harder to perform it, and that’s great, because it’s a joke that contends with people having trouble with the idea of feminism. It’s getting destigmatized by our culture now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mph1plzp1_Y\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You did an installment of \u003ca href=\"http://www.avclub.com/article/emily-heller-taylor-swifts-slut-shaming-you-belong-227958\" target=\"_blank\">The \u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"http://www.avclub.com/article/emily-heller-taylor-swifts-slut-shaming-you-belong-227958\" target=\"_blank\">AV Club’s HateSong\u003c/a>, where you talked about how Taylor Swift’s “You Belong With Me” drives you crazy. Because it’s Taylor Swift, and because it’s the Internet, I’m assuming you got a ton of sh*t for that?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I got \u003cem>so\u003c/em> much sh*t for that. I’m less careful with my words in a phone interview than I am in person, so I felt kinda bad about the way some things were worded. Having said that, I still think that song is, like, brutally anti-feminist. I do hate it for that reason. \u003cem>That\u003c/em> said, I do sing along to it when it comes on, and I do love that she’s giving Kesha money right now. I love that feminism is now a commercially viable position for pop stars to take.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So what did you hear from the Swifties?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, they came after me on Instagram. They came after me on Twitter. One of them pretended to be me on Twitter -- they started a fake Emily Heller Twitter account, and it was very confusing because they kept switching from speaking in the first person to the third person. I got them suspended so I can’t look it up, and I don’t remember the exact wording but it was, like, stuff about how I’ll s**k a d**k for 25 cents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Wow.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[Laughs.] Yeah. It was tight. I was like, wow, they really nailed my brand. How is anyone gonna know this isn’t me?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you have a thick skin for that kind of thing, having been in the public eye for a bit now? It seems like an unfortunate reality for women whose work is on the Internet. \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No, I’m a sensitive little flower. I mean, I act kinda tough, and I know objectively that most people on the Internet are doing an impression of themselves at their worst, so I know better than to take it seriously. At the same time, that stuff will keep me up at night. Any clip on the Internet of a woman doing standup is gonna have comments on it saying “women aren’t funny,” and it’s just tiresome. What I take harder is people I respect -- if someone smart is disagreeing with me on something. I didn’t care about the Taylor Swift fans who got mad at me for that article; they were at least taking me the right way. But if someone is thinking I’m anti-feminist?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s really hard for me to deal with Internet comments. I stopped reading YouTube comments years ago; I installed a blocker because I don't even have the self-control not to read them. I do feel like being a little bit more public has kind of motivated me to check out of the national conversation at times, which could be good and could be bad. There are days when I feel like I can handle seeing how horrible the world is and days when I can’t -- I kind of think every time you sign into the Internet, you should be able to opt out of different things based on how capable you feel that day. Like “yes, I can handle that,” or “no, I can’t, just show me puppies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>I would use that. That would do really well.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Silicon Valley! I know you’re reading this. Someone out there with money: Let’s make it happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>I saw you open for \u003cem>Broad City\u003c/em> when they were in San Francisco with their live show in 2014. How did that come about?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I love those girls a lot, and that is quite possibly my favorite show on television. They knew I was gonna be in town for Thanksgiving, so it worked out. It has been really cool to see how much people are responding to that show -- I remember it wasn’t that long ago that if you wanted to sell a show to Comedy Central with women in front, it was an uphill battle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeBPmu8mDxI\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>I’m sure you’re sick of hearing questions like “So! Regular girls on TV, who smoke pot…!” But it is interesting to me that it seems like this dam just burst in the past couple of years with cool young women in comedy getting high-profile time slots, their own shows, etc. Do you have any sense of what caused the shift?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think if you’re a person in the real world, with your eyes open, you \u003cem>of course\u003c/em> know those people exist. But most people who work in television aren’t in the real world! ...It’s my feeling that other women are making it happen [for those on their way up]. That show [Broad City] was produced by Amy Poehler, and Amy Poehler made it happen. I mean, obviously those girls are great and they made a great pilot, but you need people above you in the industry who are interested in being that person. And I think we’re just getting to a point now where there are enough successful women who are in a place to do that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A question I ask all Bay Area natives: Where do you make sure to go when you’re home?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a burrito place called Taqueria Ramiro and Sons in Alameda -- we just called it the burrito place growing up -- but yeah, that’s a must. I’m a sucker for all of the Golden Lotus vegetarian restaurants run by that one cult. I like seeing my parents. Oh, and sometimes I hang out with my debate coach from high school. Lexi, if you’re reading this, I expect you to be there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Emily Heller performs at the Punch Line Comedy Club in San Francisco from March 15 - 27.

This was pre-\u003cem>Broad City\u003c/em>, mind you; regular girls who were dorky, smoked weed, and called the world like they saw it were not exactly the talk of the televised town.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fast forward just three years, and Heller, an Alameda native and UC Santa Cruz alum who now lives in LA, is enjoying a well-deserved rise to fame.

Well, it’s one of those things where like, there’s not a Women’s History Month \u003cem>festival\u003c/em>, right? Lilith Fair is in the summer, so I don’t know what the other traditions are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mean, look, it’s the broadest category in the world, it’s half the people on the planet. But the Punch Line show...it is nice, as a comedian, that Women’s History Month is there once a year to say “Hey, here’s a way to market this.” It's great that they do all-women features. I think a lot of people don’t like all-female lineups, but I can say that as a performer, nothing makes me feel like women onstage are diverse than having us be the only ones up there. Because you do get kind of freed from feeling like you’re representing your gender, which can happen when you’re the only female comic in a lineup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You have \u003ca href=\"http://www.cc.com/video-clips/zv6u26/john-oliver-s-new-york-stand-up-show-feminism-is-not-very-fun\" target=\"_blank\">a bit on the album about feminism\u003c/a> and its marketing problem, and I know you've been doing it for a while. I’m curious if and how that joke has changed over the years?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I wrote that joke, I wasn’t thinking about ‘Oh, I’m gonna talk about something that’s gonna be really divisive.’ I had just started standup, just moved to San Francisco after being at UC Santa Cruz, and the thought didn’t cross my mind that talking about [feminism] would be weird to anyone. It is interesting, because in the years since I first started telling that joke, it’s gotten harder and harder to perform it, and that’s great, because it’s a joke that contends with people having trouble with the idea of feminism. It’s getting destigmatized by our culture now.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/mph1plzp1_Y'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/mph1plzp1_Y'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You did an installment of \u003ca href=\"http://www.avclub.com/article/emily-heller-taylor-swifts-slut-shaming-you-belong-227958\" target=\"_blank\">The \u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"http://www.avclub.com/article/emily-heller-taylor-swifts-slut-shaming-you-belong-227958\" target=\"_blank\">AV Club’s HateSong\u003c/a>, where you talked about how Taylor Swift’s “You Belong With Me” drives you crazy. Because it’s Taylor Swift, and because it’s the Internet, I’m assuming you got a ton of sh*t for that?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I got \u003cem>so\u003c/em> much sh*t for that. I’m less careful with my words in a phone interview than I am in person, so I felt kinda bad about the way some things were worded. Having said that, I still think that song is, like, brutally anti-feminist. I do hate it for that reason. \u003cem>That\u003c/em> said, I do sing along to it when it comes on, and I do love that she’s giving Kesha money right now. I love that feminism is now a commercially viable position for pop stars to take.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So what did you hear from the Swifties?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, they came after me on Instagram. They came after me on Twitter. One of them pretended to be me on Twitter -- they started a fake Emily Heller Twitter account, and it was very confusing because they kept switching from speaking in the first person to the third person. I got them suspended so I can’t look it up, and I don’t remember the exact wording but it was, like, stuff about how I’ll s**k a d**k for 25 cents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Wow.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[Laughs.] Yeah. It was tight. I was like, wow, they really nailed my brand. How is anyone gonna know this isn’t me?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you have a thick skin for that kind of thing, having been in the public eye for a bit now? It seems like an unfortunate reality for women whose work is on the Internet. \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No, I’m a sensitive little flower. I mean, I act kinda tough, and I know objectively that most people on the Internet are doing an impression of themselves at their worst, so I know better than to take it seriously. At the same time, that stuff will keep me up at night. Any clip on the Internet of a woman doing standup is gonna have comments on it saying “women aren’t funny,” and it’s just tiresome. What I take harder is people I respect -- if someone smart is disagreeing with me on something. I didn’t care about the Taylor Swift fans who got mad at me for that article; they were at least taking me the right way. But if someone is thinking I’m anti-feminist?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s really hard for me to deal with Internet comments. I stopped reading YouTube comments years ago; I installed a blocker because I don't even have the self-control not to read them. I do feel like being a little bit more public has kind of motivated me to check out of the national conversation at times, which could be good and could be bad. There are days when I feel like I can handle seeing how horrible the world is and days when I can’t -- I kind of think every time you sign into the Internet, you should be able to opt out of different things based on how capable you feel that day. Like “yes, I can handle that,” or “no, I can’t, just show me puppies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>I would use that. That would do really well.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Silicon Valley! I know you’re reading this. Someone out there with money: Let’s make it happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>I saw you open for \u003cem>Broad City\u003c/em> when they were in San Francisco with their live show in 2014. How did that come about?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I love those girls a lot, and that is quite possibly my favorite show on television. They knew I was gonna be in town for Thanksgiving, so it worked out. It has been really cool to see how much people are responding to that show -- I remember it wasn’t that long ago that if you wanted to sell a show to Comedy Central with women in front, it was an uphill battle.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/zeBPmu8mDxI'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/zeBPmu8mDxI'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>I’m sure you’re sick of hearing questions like “So! Regular girls on TV, who smoke pot…!” But it is interesting to me that it seems like this dam just burst in the past couple of years with cool young women in comedy getting high-profile time slots, their own shows, etc. Do you have any sense of what caused the shift?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think if you’re a person in the real world, with your eyes open, you \u003cem>of course\u003c/em> know those people exist. But most people who work in television aren’t in the real world! ...It’s my feeling that other women are making it happen [for those on their way up]. That show [Broad City] was produced by Amy Poehler, and Amy Poehler made it happen. I mean, obviously those girls are great and they made a great pilot, but you need people above you in the industry who are interested in being that person. And I think we’re just getting to a point now where there are enough successful women who are in a place to do that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A question I ask all Bay Area natives: Where do you make sure to go when you’re home?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a burrito place called Taqueria Ramiro and Sons in Alameda -- we just called it the burrito place growing up -- but yeah, that’s a must. I’m a sucker for all of the Golden Lotus vegetarian restaurants run by that one cult. I like seeing my parents. Oh, and sometimes I hang out with my debate coach from high school. Lexi, if you’re reading this, I expect you to be there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The perpetually remorseful pop star will be turning 22 next month, but if you want to serenade him with a special YouTube or Instagram video, you should probably wait two weeks afterward to be safe: \u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5\">March 14, 2016 will mark the first official day that you can't get hit with a copyright infringement suit for broadcasting a recorded performance of \"Happy Birthday to You.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, one of the weirder legal battles of our time has come to an end. The birthday song, a tune most children learn by the time they're 3 years old, will finally enter the public domain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Happy Birthday to You” was originally written in 1893, by sisters Patty and Mildred Hill. Patty, a kindergarten teacher, said she came up with the song as a \"good morning\" tune for school children; the birthday-specific lyrics were added as an optional verse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their copyright expired in 1949. Music publisher \u003ca href=\"http://www.warnerchappell.com/song-details/WW001266210000\" target=\"_blank\">Warner/Chappell music\u003c/a> acquired it in 1988 -- and since then has collected about $2 million in royalties a year.

The show took place on singer Rupya Marya's birthday, and the band -- and audience -- surprised her with a sing-along. But to include the track on the record, Marya discovered, she'd have to pay $455 in royalties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's when she joined LA filmmaker Jennifer Nelson's class-action lawsuit against the music publisher. The suit's lead plaintiff, Nelson first brought the suit in 2013 after she was charged $1500 to use said song in a documentary she was making about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A judge ruled in Nelson's favor last year, but Warner/Chappell held to their claim on a couple of wonky technicalities (a separate, 1935 copyright agreement) until \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/10/business/media/details-of-happy-birthday-copyright-settlement-revealed.html\" target=\"_blank\">settling this week\u003c/a>. The publisher has agreed to pay out some $14 million to people who've paid to use the song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2706567-Birthday-Settlmemo.html\" target=\"_blank\">memorandum\u003c/a> in support of the settlement adds the following proclamation and/or warning, depending on how you feel about the song to begin with:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Because Defendants have charged for use of the Song, untold thousands of people chose not to use the Song in their own performances and artistic works or to perform the Song in public. After the settlement is approved, that restraint will be removed and the song will be performed and used far more often than it has been in the past.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Worth noting: There is nothing in said settlement about performers having to be in tune.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
