GO:LA - Wits - LA Weekly

Wits and Giggles
Wits – Live!


The motto of St. Paul, Minnesota is “the most livable city in America.” The temperature in St. Paul on New Year’s Day was -1 degree. As livable as that might be for a penguin, Wits host John Moe knows that a fieldtrip to Southern California in January isn’t too bad of an idea. Luckily for him, the premise of his public radio show is fairly simple and travels easily: comedians and musicians share the stage for some goofy conversation, a few jokes and a handful of tunes. This evening the roster of comedians outweighs the musicians with the Office’s Ellie Kemper joining Largo fixtures Patton Oswalt and Paul F. Tompkins while songwriters Aimee Mann and Ted Leo will bring the guitars. It appears Los Angeles has its livable moments too.
