ABOUT BANGING IT OUT WITH ELKE THOMS

One morning you woke up, shaved your head or dyed your hair pink. "Why did you do that?!” your parents screamed—Comedian Elke Thoms would also like to know. We’ve all heard about getting bangs after a breakup, but is that really why you got them?

Elke delves into her guests’ motivations behind their wildest hair changes (whether that was a mullet or ~gasp~ their first trim that was more than just an inch), and investigates if it was to create a new them, to get back at an ex, or the most unhinged of all—just for fun.

Elke Thoms is a rising star on the Los Angeles comedy scene. Get some serious bragging rights and discover her before everyone else does! With her sharp wit and clever humor, she’s already owning stages at The Comedy Store and Laugh Factory, while making waves at top comedy festivals both here and abroad.

Elke’s also flexed her writing chops as Editor-in-Chief of Northeastern University’s Literary Arts Magazine, and her plays have been produced in L.A., Boston, and Minneapolis.

So, what are you waiting for? Say you found her first!
