Karinda Dobbins is a breath of fresh air in the world of predominantly white, male comedy. This week, she and I sat down to discuss hecklers, black radicals with corporate jobs, and SNL's diversity problem. Highlights include:

  • why open mics are not for the weak, and
  • who she admires in the burgeoning social justice comedy "scene."
