Ali Wentworth

in conversation with

Brooke Shields:

The Year No One Saw Coming   

Comedian Ali Wentworth spent the pandemic like so many other Americans: seesawing between the effects of an early case of COVID, baking an unconscionable number of chocolate cakes and binging on every available TV show. 

But unlike most of us, she coped primarily by relying on her trademark penchant for seeing the absurdity in virtually everything — and by turning even the tribulations into a series of comic vignettes, Alis Well That Ends Well.  

She joins us to bring some levity to the darkness of the era of COVID by bantering about the hysterical, the absurd and sometimes challenging episodes that she and her family overcame.

The author of three New York Times bestsellers, Ali Wentworth made a name for herself as a cast member of In Living Color, star of Head Case and a correspondent on the Oprah Winfrey Show. She frequently guest hosts Live with Kelly and Ryan, and hosts the Shondaland and iHeartradio podcast Go Ask Ali.

In conversation with actor, author and activist Brooke Shields.
