She's 1/2 of the hilarious comedy podcast "Slobs", has two #1 comedy albums -- the first of which was recorded right here in Anchorage, and was a writer for the Roast of Whitney Cummings.She's a Paid Regular at The Comedy Store (as seen on the Showtime series of the same name), and has performed to sold out crowds on 4 continents.

She's currently writing for Theo Von's new hour special and has been a guest on Bert Kreischer's "Bertcast" and "Gettin' Better with Ron Funches" . She also toured with/wrote for Melissa Villasenor of Saturday Night Live and has opened for Theo, Bert, Mark Normand and Ari Shaffir. She has also released multiple charting country songs because she's an extremely versatile piece of trash.

9:00pm - 11:00pm - Those Aren't The Words

"Those Aren't The Words" is a musical comedy game show where contestants compete for points in challenges revolving around song parodies. Comedian Kevin O'Fee hosts this playfully irreverent, toe-tapping good time all over Los Angeles, most notably The Nitecap and The Broadwater Theater. Contestants perform an original song parody in the first round and then go on to play a series of musical improv games to compete for points awarded by a panel of judges. You'll laugh, you'll dance, but you can't sing along because THOSE AREN'T THE WORDS!
