Slate and Nancherla used their comedic charm to talk about female sexuality and politics at Goldstein Auditorium Feb. 9.

Although it was a snowy Friday night, hundreds of students were drawn to the Goldstein Auditorium at the Schine Student Center to watch Aparna Nancherla and headliner Jenny Slate perform standup. The show started at 8:00 p.m., but crowds filed into the room as early as 7:00 p.m. to get a good seat and view of the comedians. Throughout the night, it is safe to say that tears were shed and stomachs were sore from intense laughter.

Considering the other choices on UU's Survey and SU's near miss with the rapper last year, Kid Cudi was a predictable yet solid booking for UU.

No one is surprised, right?
