Kat Timpf is no stranger to standing up for herself in the face of public scrutiny. As a commentator, comedian, and author, she’s built a career on embracing the tough topics with her sharp wit and unapologetic voice. Whether she’s delivering bold opinions on Gutfeld! or making her audience laugh with her signature humor, Timpf has never backed down from challenging conventional views.

However, even the most confident voices face criticism—and for Timpf, that often comes in the form of online trolls. “I have no idea what to expect with this pregnancy, but what really bothers me more than the unsolicited advice is people just being so mean,” Timpf said, speaking with Fox News Digital. Despite this, her recent pregnancy announcement has opened the floodgates for more vitriol from people who feel the need to comment on her every move.

Timpf humorously responded to the hate, sharing, “I’m 35, so they call it a ‘geriatric pregnancy,’ and for years, I’ve gotten these hateful comments. Now that I’m pregnant, people are like, ‘Can you just shut up about it already?’ Some of them are the same people!” She continued, addressing the strange contradiction, “You’re mad I’m happy about having a baby?”

“I Used to Like You Until…” – A New Book on Binary Thinking and Judgment

Alongside her personal news, Timpf is gearing up for the release of her second book, “I Used to Like You Until… (How Binary Thinking Divides Us).” Published in September 2023 by Simon & Schuster, this book follows her New York Times bestseller, “You Can’t Joke About That.” In this new work, Timpf dives deep into the frustrations of being labeled and written off for her beliefs, whether they align with others’ views or not.

“I wrote this book because I’m tired of people demanding that we pick a side,” she explained. “Being on the fence or having independent views seems to make me a ‘fence-sitter,’ but I’m not sitting on the fence—I’m firm in my views!” She stresses that binary thinking—the tendency to think in absolutes—often clouds rational discourse, and she wants to challenge that by offering a new perspective on complex topics.

Timpf is quick to add that humor, for her, has always been a way to deal with tough situations. She’s used comedy to reclaim her own power over issues that many would shy away from. And through her book, she hopes to encourage others to do the same: stand up for themselves and speak their truth even when faced with opposition.

L.A. Reflections: From Struggling to Thriving

Timpf also took a moment to reflect on how far she’s come since her early days in Los Angeles. “I came here with nothing, working at Boston Market and struggling,” she recalled. “But stand-up comedy gave me a sense of power over the things that were making me feel powerless. It helped me survive the grind of Hollywood, and now, it’s my life.”

From her humble beginnings to headlining shows, Timpf’s journey has been nothing short of impressive. In fact, her recent tour debut in Thousand Oaks, California, is a full-circle moment that reminds her of the challenges she faced when she first arrived in L.A. “It’s overwhelming to me that I get to do this. I’m so grateful for every single person that comes out,” she said, visibly moved.

More Than Just Comedy: Timpf’s Journey to Personal Growth

Despite the pressures, Timpf has never lost sight of her commitment to personal growth and authenticity. As she continues to grow her career and embrace new opportunities, Timpf remains dedicated to navigating life with humor and resilience. Whether it’s defending her pregnancy excitement or challenging the labels others place on her, she is always unapologetically herself.

Her second book, coupled with her newest tour, signals that Timpf isn’t just a voice in entertainment—she’s a force of nature, reminding her audience that it’s okay to question the system, reject binary thinking, and find humor in the chaos. As she continues to balance career, family, and activism, Timpf proves that it’s possible to succeed in an industry that often feels stacked against people who speak their truth.

“I’ve always been like this,” she said. “I’m sensitive, but I’m also strong. I’m going to keep speaking my mind, and I’m going to keep doing it on my terms.”
