With swagger and passion, Esposito makes a statement that still never stops being funny.

Esposito channels the kind of righteous fury that can only come from someone who's been through hell and clawed her way back

To squirm at the title of Cameron Esposito's new special is both the point and the problem.

There were times when the special felt its thrown-togetherness, but it's pretty impossible to be cynical at it when it accomplishes way more than a comedy special usually does.
