Shlesinger taped the special at the Eccles Theater in Salt Lake City.

Shlesinger is one of today's premiere stand-up comedians and the comedian has released six Netflix specials to date including her most recent 2022's Hot Forever. Her other Netflix specials include Unveiled, War Paint, Freezing Hot, Confirmed Kills, and Elder Millennial. In 2019, Shlesinger released Iliza Shlesinger: Over & Over, her "fan-u-mentary," which gave fans an inside look into what goes into the making of one of her specials.

In addition to her stand-up, Shlesinger wrote, executive produced, and starred in the romantic comedy film, Good On Paper, which was based on her own dating experience, and is streaming on Netflix. Shlesinger also starred opposite Mark Wahlberg in Netflix's Spenser Confidential, directed by Peter Berg, and co-starred along with Shia Labeouf and Vanessa Kirby in 2020 for the indie feature Pieces of a Woman. In 2018, she co-starred in Instant Family, starring Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne. She also made a cameo in the popular MAX series, Righteous Gemstones.

In 2023, Shlesinger released her latest & second book All Things Aside: Absolutely Correct Opinions, a collection of hilarious and insightful essays about the exasperating issues of everyday life. In 2017, she released Girl Logic: The Genius and the Absurdity (Hachette Book Group) a subversively funny collection of essays and observations on a confident woman's approach to friendship, singlehood, and relationships.

Shlesinger will be wrapping up her Get Ready Tour this spring and will be announcing her 2025 tour soon.

Iliza Shlesinger: A Different Animal is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Avalon with Iliza Shlesinger, Kara Baker, David Martin, and Jackie Stolfi serving as executive producers. The comedian is repped by UTA and Avalon.
