As we wrap up another year, we want to extend our warmest wishes for a joyful holiday season to all of our listeners. Thank you for your support and for tuning in. May your holidays be filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments!
Comedians Elena D'Ambrosio and Lev Meniker - Part 1 - December 2024
Elena D’Ambrosio is an ex-Italian who sees nationality, like gender, as subjective. She’s working toward an inclusive, feminist world – through comedy, science, and community. Her heart hides a sweet, loving affection for Italy, humanity, and a love for dogs (except chihuahuas).
Lev Meniker is an American who grew up in Germany. His comedy combines his observations with personal stories and misadventures. Lev gets annoyed when people compare him to Jesus (because of his hair, personality or Jewishness), and when he gets mistaken for a woman when seen from behind.
Lev and Elena run Sparkle Comedy Club. They have the show Funny Women coming up on Thursday, 19 December 2024, showcasing female-presenting comedians. Lev's solo show Done by Hand is on 18 January 2025. You can follow Sparkle Comedy on Instagram and Facebook.
