Is it still possible to laugh at our contemporary cultural moment? If anyone can make it happen, it’s Wanda Sykes.
Join her for a candid conversation about what is and isn’t “normal” in 2019, her three decades working in stand-up, her recent work on ABC’s Black-ish and much more. Widely regarded by fellow comedians as one of the most brilliant stand-up comics alive, her new Netflix special, Not Normal, tackles everything that shouldn’t be funny right now—our current political and cultural climate—with gut-busting wit and intelligence.
Jonathan Capehart is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and a member of The Washington Post editorial board, where he is also an opinion writer.
