Sometimes heart issues need a light touch.

I'm Jenna Friedman, and this is soft focus.

In tonight's episode, we explore love and connection.

But first, rape.

Hello, and welcome to The Last Laugh. My guest this week is the hilariously deadpan, Jenna Friedman.

Jenna spent three years as a field producer on The Daily Show, collaborating with

correspondents like Samantha B, John Oliver, and Michael Che, among others. Now she has taken the skills she learned at Comedy Central and exploded them into soft focus,

her provocative new series of specials on Adult Swim, which used dark humor to tackle issues like

campus rape and the Gamergate controversy.

On today's show, we'll talk about what it was like to make that transition from behind

the scenes to in front of the camera, where she seems to perfected the art of getting

people to embarrass themselves on television.

With her uniquely feminist spin on the type of confrontational comedy that has traditionally

been performed by men, like Sasha Baron Cohen and Nathan Fielder, Jenna has created something

truly original that I highly recommend everyone check out if you

haven't seen it.

Seriously, it was one of the funniest things I've watched in a long time.

So let's get right to it.

This is the last laugh with my guest, Jenna Friedman.

Jenna, I am so excited to have you here because I watched your show, and I will admit that I was probably a little late to it, but it totally just blew my mind, and I loved it.

So I'm very excited to have you here.

Thank you.
