Welcome to the Outtakes for Sabeen Sadiq’s episode of Performance Revue. This is bonus content, featuring parts of the main interview cut for time, conversational cul-de-sacs, and some behind-the-scenes peeks, with a decidedly more podcast-y tone. The episode bounces around a lot, kicking off in the middle of a conversation about problematic popular comedians, which quickly drifts into candy. From there, we discuss some of our favorite comedians, such as Jackie Kashian and Sonal Aggarwal, her lack of "bougee", and at the end, I included part of our chat before the interview.
This week I talked to Chicago comic Sonal Aggarwal about the time she got felt up by a strange man at the beach in Sri Lanka and almost drowned him. (Trigger warning: sexual assault.) Sonal runs a show called Congrats On Your Success which happens the first Thursday of the month at Uncharted Books, 7pm.

This October, Tom was stricken by the goddamn flu and could not host the show, nor could he bring the mic with which the show is usually recorded--but that will not stop THE SKEWER! Intrepid co-producer erica dreisbach took over hosting duties and recorded the show with her phone. The quality isn't great, we admit, but if you are willing to slog through, there are numerous goodies waiting for you within, with op-eds from Sonal Aggarwal, Nora Regis, Adam Lawson, and Jasmine Davila, and a spinge-tingling debate between erica driesbach and Eric Ruelle (ably moderated by news quiz czar Kevin Johnson). Thanks for listening!

In Episode 35 Sonal Aggarwal, world traveler and Chicago based comedian, sat down to talk about The Descent with your host Kristin Lytie. The two quickly realized it was not quite the film they remembered loving as young women. However in that moment Sonal stressed her fondness of remembering the first time she viewed The Descent. She also explored her ability to appreciate things she doesn't like and value the artistic labor that went into them, even the worst head crushing scene. She's zen as fuck if you hadn't noticed. Within this film there is are very strong themes of hurtful competition among women, women being brutalized for standing up to power, and women also being brutalized for ..being funny? And ladies, don't forget to apologize! Sonal also shared stories of her own spelunking which made Kristin deeply uncomfortable.

With a lineup as dope as this, there was little doubt The Skewer 18 would own. And own it did. Ilana Gordon started off the op-eds with a terrifyingly in-depth look at the Unicorn Frappucino. Carl Glick showed us the dark side of jacking in to cyberspace. Erika Price shared the story of her long struggle and eventual victory over her hated rival Bill O'Reilly. Onicia Muller showed us a 7-step program to learn from Juicero and become Silicon Valley VC millionaires. And Mary Tilden gave us a Southerner's perspective on how fucking insane it is that Confederate monuments are just coming down now. In the Skewer debate Sonal Aggarwal and Josh Zagoren had a raucous verbal melee to decide which industry should follow airlines' lead & get inexplicably violent. It was a good one.
