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 standup, her recent work on ABC’s Blackish and much more. Widely regarded by fellow comedians as one of the most brilliant standup comics alive, her new Netflix special, Not Normal, tackles everything that shouldn’t be funny right now—our current political and cultural climate—with gutbusting wit and intelligence.
Jonathan Capehart is a Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist and a member of The Washington Post editorial board, where he is also an opinion writer.
