Comedian Hari Kondabolu On Racism, Rebels And Red Meat

Tom's guest is Hari Kondabolu , the comedian/satirist and co-host of the popular podcast " Politically Re-Active " with fellow comedian W. Kamau Bell. Their show focuses on what they call "the dumpster fire that is the U.S. political landscape" with leading activists and writers. A major draw on the nationwide standup comedy circuit and a regular on late-night TV talk shows, Hari's latest stand-up album (available via digital download) is called Hari Kondabolu's New Material Night, Volume 1 , which was recorded live in San Francisco in 2013. Ahead of his two upcoming shows at The Creative Alliance in East Baltimore on Sunday August 27th, at 7:30 and 9:00pm, Hari joins Tom on the line to talk about racism, rebel statues and living in Donald Trump's America.Email us at [email protected], tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
