28 Days of Black Comedy: Amber Ruffin Week

Posted by Ron Burr on

Hey, everyone. We’re going to do something a little different for Black History Month. Usually, we pick a different comedian every day. This month, we’re going to pick one comedian each week and take a deeper dive into their work. This week we’re celebrating Amber Ruffin.

Amber has been one of the best writers and performers working in late-night comedy right now, and having a black and female voice has brought a vital component that has been sorely lacking from the format since its inception.

It’s Day 5 so we’re bringing in a special guest who always makes the Amber Ruffin Show special.
