Comedian Alonzo Bodden is performing for just one night at the Blue Note in Waikīkī on Wednesday.
Many radio listeners will recognize Bodden as a regular on NPR’s weekend quiz show, “Wait, Wait Don’t Tell Me,” where he appears with other comedians like Paula Poundstone, Mo Rocca and Faith Salie.
The Conversation spoke to Bodden about how comedy has changed since he got into the business and how the popular radio show finds humor in current events.
