Steve Stearns, the official photographer for the Accountants of Homeland Security, was also an official photographer for Netroots Nation in Las Vegas last week, and as a result, he snapped a great batch of photos from both my show and my satire panel. Check ‘em out!
Netroots Nation: Laughing Liberally Comedy Hour
Netroots Nation: Satire And Progressive Politics Panel
It was awesome to get to perform and do a panel with what amounted to an all star team of liberal and progressive comics. Lizz Winstead, Jamie Kilstein, Lee Camp, Baratunde Thurston, Katie Halper, Elon James White, Andy Cobb… Doesn’t get much more awesome than that.

Hey everyone,
In case you haven’t heard, I will be at Netroots Nation in Las Vegas, Nevada July 22nd through 24th.
Netroots Nation is the world’s largest yearly convention of liberal bloggers, activists and politicians.
This year, I am running a panel entitled “Satire and Progressive Politics” with a great group of comics on Saturday the 24th.
We have the awesome Lee Camp, Sara Benicasa, Elon James White, and Andy Cobb.
It should be an awesome panel. Hope to see you there!
