Join Steve Hofstetter and Walter Masterson for The Progressive Avengers — a sharp, hilarious night of political comedy featuring surprise guests, sketch, stand-up, and interactive games. It’s the kind of show that reminds you we’re still allowed to laugh and still have something to fight for. If you’ve been craving a night of catharsis, connection, and comedy with a conscience, this is it.
Walter Masterson is a viral comedian and political satirist known for his sharp wit and fearless commentary. His videos blend sketch and real-world trolling to expose hypocrisy and spark laughter.
Steve Hofstetter, who has over a billion views on YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram, is a Nobel Peace Prize-nominated comedian. His book (Ginger Kid) is a top 5 pick on Amazon and debuted at number one in its category. Hofstetter was the host and executive producer of season one of Laughs (FOX) and he has been on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and E! True Hollywood Story, Comics Unleashed, Comedy All-Stars, Quite Frankly, White Boyz in the Hood, Countdown, and more. He's been in four movies, and he has had two top 20 comedy albums (including one that hit number 1 on iTunes comedy charts). He is a former columnist for Sports Illustrated and the NHL, and has also written for Maxim and the New York Times, among others.
