Empire Comedy Live presents:
Andy Zaltzman: Right Questions. Wrong Answers.
Zaltzman, host of long-running global hit podcast The Bugle, returns to Toronto to (a) ask, (b) confront, (c) evade, and (d) incorrectly respond to, the biggest questions facing our rightly-renowned planet.
He will apply his uniquely inventive satirical mind to questions such as: What on earth are we going to do about everything? And: Why is the future so stroppy at the moment?
Featuring the Concilicorp Arbitrax 3000, the world’s first compromise-generating robot.
“A master satirist” – Time Out
“Sparkling, intelligent comedy with a stupidly high joke count” – Melbourne Herald Sun

Empire Comedy Live presents
Josh Gondelman at Comedy Bar for 5 shows from Thursday November 29th to Saturday December 1st.
Josh Gondelman is a writer and comedian who is a writer on Season 2 of HBO’S Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. His talent for smushing words together earned him work writing for Fuse TV’s Funny Or Die Presents: Billy On The Street, and then got him his position as Web Producer for Season 1 of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, where he wrote and managed digital content for The Daily Show alum’s HBO show.
With years of experience as a preschool teacher and a pretty good guy, Josh charms audiences using his good-natured storytelling and cracks them up with his sharp, pointy wit. Onstage, Josh’s first break came when he traveled to Atlanta for the inaugural Laughing Skull Comedy Festival, where he turned heads and captured first prize! He has also performed at the Rooftop Comedy Festival in Aspen, CO, and headlined at the Laugh Your Asheville Off Festival in Asheville, NC. More recently he has appeared in the Eugene Mirman Comedy Festival, the Bridgetown Comedy Festival, and SF Sketchfest.
Josh is pleased to meet you!
Reminder: Seating is general admission, so please arrive 20 mins before showtime to help ensure yourself of good seats. If you’re part of a group of 6 or more please give BoxOffice@ComedyBar.CA a heads up so we can prepare accordingly
