todayJanuary 16, 2026
Comedienne Margaret Cho,comedian Sterling Trhill & freelance journalist Laura Jedeed join The Ron Show today.
Ron welcomes comedy icon Margaret Cho for a wide-ranging, candid conversation about her Choligarchy tour, the risks of political comedy, and why speaking out feels more urgent than ever. Cho opens up about confronting threats, free speech, and using humor as resistance in anxious times. She also shares her emotions in seeing fellow comedians (Roseanna Barr, Bill Maher, Dave Chappelle) either going “full MAGA” or anti-trans / anti-woke.”
Later, comedian Sterling Thrill joins Ron for their weekly Friday segment, digging into headlines, late-night comedy, and how comedians try to make sense of a political moment that often feels stranger than satire.
The show also features investigative reporter Laura Jedeed of Slate, discussing her firsthand experience applying for an ICE job and what it revealed about the system.
