About this Event
This month's show features:
Onika Mclean is a mom of two who has mastered the art of juggling love, life, corporate America, and motherhood—all while making you laugh until you cry. If you haven't heard of her yet, it's time to crawl out from under that rock and join the party. You might recognize Onika from her Don’t Tell Comedy Set, her side-splitting appearance on "Pause with Sam Jay," or perhaps you caught her lighting up the stage as one of the last comedians to perform at the legendary Caroline’s Comedy Club on New Year’s Eve. She's not just a one-trick pony; she’s also graced Bravo's Emmy award-winning "The Singles Project," proving that her charm and wit are irresistible both on and off the stage. And let's not forget her culinary misadventures as a "nobody chef" on Bon Appétit's Epicurious Four Levels and Pro Chef Novice—you'll never look at a kitchen the same way again.
