ABOUT SNARKNADO X

It’s the 10th Anniversary of comedian Lizz Winstead’s Annual Year In Review. To celebrate, she is taking a special look back!, not only at 2019, but at the last 10 year’s worth of mayhem in this year's show - Snarknado X: A Hilarious Look Back At The Year And Decade

What a difference a decade makes…

Looking back over the years, it seems positively whimsical that we clutched our pearls when, Kanye interrupted Taylor, and conversely, it seems positively hypocritical that the same politicians who ignore the offenses of “The Chosen One”, are the same folks who decried, “TREASON!” when Obama wore a tan suit.

Winstead will cover all of it- from the Mueller Madness to Moscow Mitch, Ilhan to Impeachment. And of course it wouldn’t be a Winstead recap if she didn’t speed date through all of the 1500 Democratic hopefuls running to fumigate the Oval Office. No one gets a pass- not even hometown fav Amy, “Yes we know you stood in the snow” Klobuchar. If they made news, Winstead has something snarky to say about it.

To quote Winstead, “Looking back at what got our panties in a wad early in the decade vs today is so adorable! By covering 2019 while comparing it the kinder, gentler outrages of the pre Trump era will make for an acid trip down memory lane. I think it’s important to remind folks that things like the 2009 “Beer Summit” drew more GOP outrage than the 2019 “G-7 Summit” 2019 and this whole decade have been a wild ride, and this year, Winstead’s extra special Ten Year Anniversary shows are exactly the exhale we all need.


ABOUT LIZZ WINSTEAD:

Lizz Winstead has built her amazing career hilariously responding to the world. As co-creator and head writer of Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show,” Winstead has forever changed the way people get their news. As co-founder of Air America Radio, she hosted her own show called “Unfiltered”, sharing the mic every morning with the amazing Rachel Maddow and Hip Hop legend, Chuck D. As a stand-up she continues to tour, bringing her rapid response brand of comedy to theatres across the country and in 2014, was initiated into the Harvard Lampoon.

Winstead has now taken her satirical brilliance one step further, combining it with her passion for reproductive rights to form her latest passion project, Abortion Access Front, a non profit organization made up of comedians, writers and producers who create videos that use humor and outrage to expose sexist, anti choice politicians in all 50 state legislatures. AAF also spends 4 months out of the year doing shows across the country and providing support to independent abortion providers and local activists helping them to remove the stigma around abortion.

In addition to performing and her activism, Winstead authored Lizz Free Or Die, a funny and touching book of personal essays, that Elle magazine called, “Sharply witty and iconoclastic.”

Winstead’s talents as a comedian and media visionary have been recognized by The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Entertainment Weekly’s 100 Most Creative People issue among other print media. Winstead continues to appear on Comedy Central, HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher and NPR, as well as her regular commentary on MSNBC.

Winstead has a lot to say about politics and current events, and when she says it, it is always insightful and hilarious!
