When’s the last time you laughed? Like really, full body, couldn’t catch your breath, laughed?

Finding laughter can be challenging amongst the backdrop of political uncertainty and this constant stream of breaking news.

Today, we talk about how comedy can be a vehicle for protest, political dialogue and even healing.
