Political satire in America has a rich history that includes Benjamin Franklin, Mark Twain and Thomas Nast. And, as programs like "The Daily Show" prove, it still thrives today. But what sets political satire apart from "regular" humor? Marc Warzecha, director of The Second City comedy troupe in Chicago, and Kevin "Kal" Kallaugher, resident cartoonist at "The Economist," join host Frank Stasio to discuss their show, "The Art of Political Satire,” which debuts at Duke University’s Bryan Center on Thursday April 24th at 7 p.m. More information is online here.
