The Washington Roast

The week of Festivus, come see DC's favorite airing of grievances! Welcome to The Washington Roast—the hit comedy show where your favorite (and least favorite) politicians get scorched in savage, no-holds-barred roast battles. For over five years, this politically incorrect spectacle has brought together top local comedians to portray real-life political figures—from Trump to Kamala, AOC to MTG, Bernie to Biden—and tear into each other with jokes so wrong they just might be right. No one is safe. No side is spared. And every insult is bipartisan. Hosted by Tim Kardashian—dubbed as DC’s roast master by Timeout —this is not your average political satire. The Washington Roast blends sharp writing, savage roasts, and a fully interactive format where the audience becomes part of the chaos. From the unfiltered townhall segment to live voting that determines which comedians get re-elected or politically canceled, The Washington Roast puts the power (and the punchlines) in your hands. As seen on NPR, FOX, CBS, PBS, NBC, and Prime Video. Proceeds benefiting the Colorectal Cancer Alliance. All sales are final.
