On Second Thought For Thursday, November 3, 2016
Primary Content
We kick off our celebration of comedians from Georgia with a hilarious native son. George Wallace has performed stand-up comedy for four decades and when it comes to audiences, he’s seen it all. We talk with him about dealing with hecklers, his friendship with Jerry Seinfeld and what Georgia means to him.
Amber Nash provides the voice of Pam Poovey on the FX animated series “Archer,” but she’s also the star of her own Web series. She talks about writing and creating “Hart Of America” and how she strikes a balance between the different comedy outlets she’s involved in. Then, we assemble a powerful group of professional female comedians to consider how the role of women in comedy has changed.
Plus, watching comedians Maria Bamford and Margaret Cho, and you might get a glimpse of another rising star in Atlanta. Dulcé Sloan says these are just two of her inspirations. Sloan is creating a niche as a female comic in the South, and she’s getting national attention for her work. Sloan recently won NBC's 'StandUp' Comedy Showcase. We talk with her about her influences and paving the way for other black female comics.
