A regular panel member on NPR's Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me, Alonzo Bodden has been making audiences around the country laugh for more than 20 years. In his upcoming stand-up special, Heavy Lightweight, which streams on Amazon Prime Video this summer, he presents a range of topics from slavery, cell phones, and the #MeToo movement, to millennials, Kanye West and Taco Bell. As he says, "he likes to mix it up and hopes that audiences will join him for a laugh and a think, or two." Since then, he has starred in two comedy specials for Showtime: Historically Incorrect and Who's Paying Attention. He's also made appearances on ABC's Dr. Ken and Fresh Off the Boat, Dr. Phil, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Comedy Central's The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore and Californication. A car and motorcycle aficionado, Bodden hosted Speed Channel's 101 Cars You Must Drive and America's Worst Driver on the Travel Channel, and has joined Jay Leno for several off-road trips on his CNBC series Leno's Garage. He was also a field correspondent on Animal Nation with Anthony Anderson, and a contributor on the Science Channel's How to Build Everything. Last year, Alonzo released his fifth comedy CD titled Man Overboard, and currently hosts the podcast Who's Paying Attention? where he gives his unique take on what's going on in the world.
