Comedian and writer Lizz Winstead is most famous for co-creating The Daily Show, but she got her start doing stand up here in the Twin Cities. She did a lot of gigs at 7th Street Entry.

There used to be a comedy night hosted and booked by Tom Arnold.

She spoke with The Current's Mary Lucia about politics, the media, and things about America that strike her as bizarre, such as the entire female population under the age of twenty.
