Chandler Juliet Pays The Hysterical War On All Things Waking


Singer/songwriter Chandler Juliet uninterested in bringing politics into her musical career.

The industry had other ideas.

“Being an artist in music means being an activist,” says Juliet, of what she calls the “unwritten rule” that singers must follow.

“I couldn’t thrive in music. Everyone is very free, and they are expecting me to follow suit,” Juliet said. “It’s like a cult.”

That, plus the lockdowns because of the pandemic, made her hit the button to pause her singing career.

The loss of music turned out to be the gain of comedy.

Juliet started posting comedy sketches to Instagram and YouTube. At first, her goal was not career direction.

“I made myself laugh during the ordeal,” she explains. A mutual friend introduced her to The Babylon Bee, the far-right Christian satire website that is expanding into video production. Juliet started appearing in Bee sketches and eventually, the website offered her to join the company full-time.

“It was a huge stroke of luck,” she said.

Performing came naturally to Juliet, born into a family steeped in the arts.

“Everybody is a performer,” she said.

She spent most of her early adult years as a singer/songwriter, in the process creating millions of streams on Spotify. She slips into impromptu appearances, unaware that she’s preparing for the next phase of her career.

Now, she’s the freelance lead from the “Californias Move to Texas” series as well as the Twitter employee whining about Elon Musk’s takeover.

She said: “My dream is to be on a show like MADtv. Now, she’s part of a population of Bees skewering through awakened trance and beyond.

“It’s great to be in the office every day,” she says of her job as Bee, even though the nature of their work requires a unique pressure on the team. They have to move and be fast to make sure the sketch doesn’t get stale before the news cycle is interrupted.

Juliet says she holds the same conservative values ​​as the site’s views, but she doesn’t like labeling herself or others.

“I don’t have a collection of overly dogmatic beliefs,” she said. “I think it’s sinful for our society to engage in identity politics, figure out what you are all at once, and put you in a box.”

“I saw my parents being discriminated against in the industry,” she added.

She felt that treatment after joining Team Bee. She’s been labeled a “fascist” just for creating comedies for the left-wing platform.

Babylon Bee’s videos, and a host of fake news headlines, attack topics that most mainstream platforms wouldn’t touch. That opened the door for not only Bee but also indie comic book lovers, who leveraged their platform to tell jokes that others refused to come close to.

Think Tyler Fischer, Ryan Long and JP Sears.

“The barrier to entry is really simple. Are you ready to face the backlash from the madmen on the Left? ‘ asked Juliet.

It wasn’t easy for her at first.

“Gays have come to me,” she said with a chuckle, and many critics followed. The flood of angry girls finally brought her a sense of relief.

“Okay, this is what I fear. Now, it’s happening and I don’t have to be afraid anymore,” she said.

Lately, however, the negative comments have dwindled. Instead it was consumers cheering her work and the topics the Bee videos tackle.

Juliet still makes comedy videos herself, and she’s acutely aware of Big Tech’s censors wanting to remove jokes that don’t fit their stories.

“I know what I am up against. I have seen a lot of people lose their accounts. I want to reach the most people. I still haven’t found it too spicy. Some people might say otherwise,” she said.

Her sober, right-leaning comedy plays a small, but compelling role in the raging culture wars. And there’s nothing to laugh at for Juliet.

She said: “Comedy has a magic sauce that can break people’s minds through laughter. “Your brain is creating a neural pathway to think differently about something that makes you laugh.”
