About this show

Comedians Laurie Kilmartin and Stacy Cay have both been featured against their wills on Fox News for telling jokes that offended Sean Hannity, Lara Trump, Pam Bondi and Megyn Kelly. Former Attorney Pam Bondi called Laurie a “zero,” and Megan Kelly called Stacy a “supposed comedian. As a result, their inboxes were flooded with misspelled death threats.

See Laurie and Stacy July 24th and 25th at Cap City Comedy Club. More about Laurie:
