For Rockford native and stand-up comic Natasha Leggero, the COVID-19 pandemic offered the exciting opportunity to be wracked with fear for her 4-year-old daughter’s uncertain future.
Leggero had given birth at the age of 42, after rounds of IVF and the use of frozen eggs she stored a few years prior. Unable to tour or work at a TV or film acting job in Los Angeles, where she currently resides, she sheltered in place with her daughter, her husband — fellow comedian and author Moshe Kasher — and poured time into the advice and comedy call-in show, “The Endless Honeymoon Podcast,” which she cohosts with Kasher.
