Michelle Wolf is a comedy gangster. When the camera goes to the crowd, (like after her abortion joke) that room is ice cold. I think it affected her delivery but I love her quasi-Fran Drescher voice and the fact she is making zero apologies. Her material covered everyone- including herself. It was fair.

It’s crazy we live in a time where the President is a self professed “pussy-grabber” and yet a female comic can’t say “pussy” on stage.

There’s a lot of powerful people in that room. That’s gotta be like the toughest room ever. Michelle’s got guts. It’s comedy like this that makes me proud to be a comedy fan.

There’s a weird irony that our American media can’t handle an American citizen’s material, with the excuse being, “she can’t use those words.”
