Jena Friedman - Motherf*cker #389

from The Martin Talk Show · host Martin Colton

🎙️✨ Welcome back to The Martin Talk Show, where I, Martin Colton, take you deep into the heart of creativity with some of the world’s most inspiring artists. Recorded live on the buzzing streets of Edinburgh during the Fringe, this episode is one you won’t want to miss.🔥 Discover the phenomenal Jena Friedman — Oscar-nominated, boundary-pushing comedian, and one of the sharpest political voices of our time. Jena’s latest show, Motherf*cker, is as fearless as it is vulnerable, blending biting satire with deeply personal reflections on grief, motherhood, and the current political moment. Known for her work on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and Conan, Jena brings her trademark wit and unflinching honesty to our conversation.🇺🇸 From storming the stage in a MAGA hat to dismantling politics with razor-sharp humour, Jena’s performance balances the outrageous with the intimate. Together, we explore what it means to use art and comedy not just for laughs, but as a vehicle for truth, protest, and personal healing. This is a dialogue about pushing boundaries, finding courage in vulnerability, and the power of using your voice while you still can.🌍 The Martin Talk Show is about more than conversation — it’s about uncovering the hidden layers of creativity across theatre, music, dance, film, comedy and beyond. Join us as Jena proves why comedy matters now more than ever.💡 Be inspired. Be challenged.
