Lovett or Leave It: LIVE from DC

Lovett or Leave It: LIVE from DC brings Jon Lovett’s political comedy podcast to the stage at the Theatre at Capital Turnaround. In the lead-up to Crooked Con 2026, the former Obama speechwriter, comedian, and Pod Save America co-host will break down the biggest and most absurd stories in politics with a live audience.

The show features Lovett’s irreverent take on the news and the recurring questions “What is this?” and “Where am I?” that have become part of the program’s style. Previous guests have included Danny DeVito and Amy Klobuchar. The podcast is available on YouTube and through other podcast platforms.
