What Does it All Mean, What Does Any of This Mean? Why? How? Help! A Comedy Show

In the PRS Lecture Room!

Welcome back to PRS’s latest installment of a comedy talk show here to cure your existential dread. The stand up comedian is known to be the deepest observer.

But most importantly, you will laugh.
