It's time again for Comedy Congress! Join Patt Morrison and her guests: Alonzo Bodden, Ben Gleib and Maz Jobrani to laugh at the madness of politics - the truth hurts far less when it’s told by comedians.

The comedic material emanating from Washington D.C., and state capitols across the country, is enough to make any sitcom writer jealous, even if most of that comedy is unintentional. Our motto on Comedy Congress is that just when politics makes you want to cry, it’s usually best to laugh.

Hosted by KPCC's Patt Morrison.
