        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hannah Gadsby still has tales to tell.</p><p>The 42-year-old Australian comic, whose revelatory 2018 stand-up special <strong>vaulted her</strong> to seemingly overnight international stardom, is back in a trailer for her upcoming second Netflix show, titled &#8220;<strong>Hannah Gadsby: Douglas</strong>.&#8221;</p><p>In it, she worries that she may have used up all of her best material in her emotionally jarring previous special, &#8220;Hannah Gadsby: Nanette,&#8221; which was an emotional <em>tour de force</em>. The stand-up routine was filled with self-deprecation and a remarkably dark tale of getting beaten up by a man who was jealous that Gadsby was flirting with his girlfriend.</p><p>&#8220;Had I known just how wildly popular trauma was going to be in the context of comedy, I might have budgeted my s - - t a bit better,&#8221; she says in the trailer for the new special, which name-checks one of her dogs. &#8220;But I went and put all my trauma eggs into one basket like a f - - king idiot — and now here we are!&#8221;</p><p>Her first special was meant to be a bit of a swan song for her comedy career.</p><p>&#8220;I have been thinking about this whole comedy thing — I don&#8217;t feel very comfortable in it anymore,&#8221; she said in the show. &#8220;I&#8217;ve built a career out of self-deprecating humor . . . and I don&#8217;t want to do that anymore.&#8221;</p><p>But it launched her to fame worldwide and earned her a 2019 Emmy Award for outstanding writing for a variety special in a category that also included heavy-hitters &#8220;Carpool Karaoke: When Corden Met McCartney Live From Liverpool,&#8221; &#8220;Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé&#8221; and &#8220;Wanda Sykes: Not Normal.&#8221;</p><p>Now she&#8217;s back with more laughs and, undoubtedly, more cringe-worthy stories.</p><p>&#8220;Hannah Gadsby: Douglas&#8221; premieres May 26 on Netflix.</p>]]></content:encoded>
