As it has been for years and years now, the world is so absurd that trying to be absurd comedically is an incredibly daunting challenge. That still doesn't stop such brilliant and amazing folks such as Cricket Arrison from finding ways to satirize the world and be comedically ludicrous in such the ridiculous, preposterous time that we live in. We chat with Cricket about how the gauntlet of the last few years has transformed both her comedy and herself as a person into something that's still on the stranger side of the spectrum of hilarity, but more tender and, in so many way, beautifully funny.

Also, "hot" takes on Netflix foregoing making Chappelle's Hollywood Bowl performances into specials, I Think You Should Leave getting season 3, and Russell Peters' upcoming new sneakers.
