Comedian & Writer Judd Apatow Brings Stand-Up Set To Milwaukee

Department of Defense

Election Day is right around the corner here in the U.S. But Nov. 6 isn't just a day of civic engagement here in Milwaukee. It's also the day that the creator of Freaks and Geeks and The 40-Year-Old Virgin brings his stand-up routine to the Turner Hall Ballroom.

While it's not exactly an antidote to political overload, Judd Apatow hopes his set will provide a couple hours of respite. Apatow discusses comedy and his return to standup with Lake Effect's Bonnie North on the phone from his home.
