Wanda Sykes.

Humor in these especially political times can be tough to pull off — especially if you’re not typically a "political" comic. Wanda Sykes typically has focused on other things in her act, but even she hasn’t been able to avoid politics.

Sykes has been a stand-up for decades and a regular on "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and the recent "Roseanne" reboot, to name a few credits. She’s in the Valley Friday and Saturday for her "Oh Well" comedy tour.

She joined The Show to talk about her act.
