Ramblin’ woman
Legendary ace comedian Paula Poundstone talks touring, Trump STEVEN LINDSEY | Contributing writer stevencraiglindsey@gmail.com Nobody goes off on a tangent quite like Paula Poundstone.
No matter how rambling a story may seem at first, it often ends up with the audience doubled over with laughter. For the past 45 years, she’s been commenting on the world around her, pointing out life’s most absurd aspects for the enjoyment of millions in a career that’s meandered almost as much as one of her hilarious anecdotes.
But whether she’s performing for an NPR crowd on Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me, a sold-out theater at one of her standup shows, or a silent audience during her Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone podcast, if people are laughing, she’s in a good place.
Or as she might put it, good enough. The accomplished comedian returns to Dallas this Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at the Winspear Opera House.
