In his newest hour, Dancing On a Weeknight, Josh Gondelman continues to demonstrate a brand of kindness and calm that is all his own. While celebrating his wife’s wisdom, ruminating on the joy of living with a pug and sharing with the crowd a hilarious private moment from his wedding, he disarms the audience and gets comfortable in a way most comedians do not. So… get comfortable, throw on Josh’s newest hour and by the end of it, we expect you’ll be so excited that you may be Dancing On a Weeknight as well.
