Directed by Laura Lucchetti, the special is described as a smart and sometimes silly exploration of what it means to be a woman who has recently reached that number after 29. Riffing on universal themes like the horrors of dating, the pressure to order the right wine and the inherent dangers of using public restrooms, Fiedler strikes a chord with fans both male and female. The overarching theme of “I’m too young to be this old” informs the hour, as she shares glimpses into the path that has led her to the woman she’s still becoming.

In a statement to Deadline, Fiedler shared, "I've been working on this special for literally years and I'm so excited to finally get it out into the world. Most of my fans have found me through social media, so many of them have never seen my stand-up comedy. In fact, I think a lot of them may not even know I do it!"
