Get ready for a night of sharp stand-up and big laughs at Last Laugh Friday at The Bornemann, hosted by actor and comedian Mark Christopher Lawrence. This stacked lineup brings together nationally touring comics and rising talent for an evening of smart, high-energy comedy. Headlining the show is James P. Connolly, whose comedy has been featured on America’s Got Talent, Comedy Central, and HBO, and in the Netflix series "Larry Charles: Dangerous World of Comedy." A Harvard graduate and former Marine Corps officer who once wrote jokes for a Colonel during Desert Storm, Connolly delivers sharp, intelligent humor that has also earned him a place on the daily rotation of SiriusXM Comedy Channels. The feature set comes from Noah Copfer, a fast-rising comic who has released a stand-up special with Don’t Tell Comedy and produced a full-length hour special on YouTube. Touring across the country and opening for top comics, Copfer recently appeared alongside Larry David in the newest season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Opening the night is San Diego’s own Raaghav Thatte, known for his infectious energy, quick wit, and spot-on impressions. Since starting comedy at 18 while performing improv and stand-up at University of California, Santa Barbara, Thatte has become a standout voice on the Southern California comedy circuit. Three great comics. One unforgettable night. Come early, grab a drink, and get ready for the last laugh of the month. James P. Connolly on Facebook / Instagram

EDITOR’S NOTE: San Diego District Attorney Summer Stephan is disputing this story. KPBS’s story relied on a data analysis from a researcher who attributed cases to DAs based on disposition date. The DA’s office provided an analysis that attributed cases to DAs based on filing date. It showed no racial disparity in making these special charges against Black and white defendants when looking only at multiple murder cases during DA Stephan’s tenure. KPBS has clarified the story to include more detail about the analysis and the data it used. Go to the story to learn more. Data show that in San Diego County, the racial divide in charges that can lead to life without parole is larger than in nearby counties and has grown under the current district attorney.
