Electoral Dysfunction: Politics! Comedy! Yelling!

Host Tom Brennan (Marvel Entertainment) and token Never Trump Republican Robert George (Bloomberg Opinion) discuss and debate the news of the week with a panel of special guests. Their debate will inspire the improv performed by some of Philly's best and funniest performers. Politics! Comedy! Yelling! All this and more as debate & improv collide in a night of comedy so fast, so furious that we'll all be impeached before the night is through. It's ELECTORAL DYSFUNCTION!
