“Very Delta” Episode #206 (w/ Lady Bushra)

The very Delta meet and greet is just that.

It's a meet and greet, not a meet and eat.

I recently got an interesting comment as well as a follow-up email from someone about the run of a meet and greet at one of my comedy club shows.

And I was very concerned, taken aback, interested, intrigued, and maybe enlightened.

I'm going to read you the email I received.

Hi, Delta.

Will there be light snacks and refreshments available at your Austin show? I'm sure you know that the last VIP meet and greet didn't have refreshments, and considering the price we're paying, it should be given.

Thank you so much, and we can't wait to see you in Austin.

That was the letter that I received.

Now, listen, we're all at different starting points.

We all have different expectations.

I only know my experience from the events that I've done.

I don't know what other people do at their meet and greets.

And my only real experience with other meet and greets is at DragCon.

So all those years past, I saw what other people did.

They would, in many cases, you would have to purchase a certain amount of merchandise and then you could take a picture with someone, or you would pay a flat rate and you could take a picture.

In the case at my events that are generally produced by someone else, these events offer a VIP meet and greet, which essentially is a photo opportunity after the show.

We talk for a little bit, we take a picture, you have the opportunity to purchase additional merchandise, and then that's usually about it.

I felt compelled to write a message back to this person because I saw them write this as a comment on a post.

And I let it go because I just thought maybe it was something silly because I've never gone to or seen a meet and greet that offered food.

But maybe that does happen and I'm just missing out.

I thought for a second, maybe I am stuck.

Maybe I have plateaued at very delta.

Maybe this person is extremely delta.

Maybe this person's onto something.
