Inspired by Stephanie Miller's popular progressive talk radio show, Sexy Liberal has brought sharp and inspiring political comedy to sold out theaters across the USA and spawned a #1 album. This time, the one and only Margaret Cho joins Miller and Fugelsang on the tour. In past shows, Miller and comedian and SiriusXM host Fugelsang have been joined onstage by performers and guests including Lily Tomlin, Aisha Tyler, Rep. Ted Lieu, Joy Reid, Representative Jan Schakowsky and Rob Reiner. Stay tuned for even more surprises coming to the Athenaeum Theatre. In Chicago, "The Stephanie Miller Show" airs weekdays from 8 - 11 a.m. on WCPT 820 A.M., who is also a presenter of this engagement.
National television and talk radio star Stephanie Miller is a wildly popular performer with a huge and fervently devoted audience. Morning drive radio's "The Stephanie Miller Show" is heard nationally, reaching more than three million-plus listeners weekly. She is ranked #12 on influential industry publication Talkers Magazine's "Heavy Hundred" list. The show also airs on SiriusXM Satellite radio's Progress network of 31 million subscribers. Her e-book "Sexy Liberal! Of Me I Sing" immediately became #1 on Amazon in political, humor and memoirs, and has just been issued in paperback by popular demand. Miller's three comedy albums all entered the Billboard Comedy charts in the top positions, as well as chart topping on Amazon, ITunes and Googleplay.
John Fugelsang hosts "Tell Me Everything" weekdays on SiriusXM Insight #121. John is a consummate talent constantly performing his standup show for audiences across the country. He's been a regular on CNN, MSNBC, FOX News and has performed for US troops, including the humanitarian mission in Haiti. His film "Dream On," a road trip in search of the American Dream, was named "Best Documentary" at the NY Independent Film Festival and recently premiered on PBS.
An accomplished performer in all formats, Margaret Cho could be called the "Queen of all Media" having conquered the worlds of film, television, books, music and theatre. She has five Grammy Award nominations (two for music albums, "Cho Dependent" and "American Myth") and one Emmy nod for her groundbreaking work on "30 Rock." Never one to shy away from a difficult or 'taboo' topic, her socially aware brand of stand-up comedy has made her both a thought leader as well as a teacher to those with open minds and open hearts. In 2017, Rolling Stone magazine named one of the 50 Best Stand-Up Comics calling her "the sort of funny, sex-positive feminist and LGBT activist younger comics continue to look up to." Equally as important as her creative side is the causes she is passionate about. Cho is widely recognized for her charitable work with gay rights and anti-bullying campaigns. In every segment of her life, Cho is honest, forthright, passionate, uproarious and always entertaining.
