Poundstone is a regular on the top-rated NPR weekly comedy news quiz show "Wait, Wait… Don't Tell Me!" On stage, Poundstone is known for her casual style, smart and observational humor, and spontaneous wit. The star of several HBO specials, Poundstone is included on Comedy Central's list of the "100 Best Stand-up Comics of All Time."

Tickets for Poundstone's show are available at the McCain Auditorium box office, online at k-state.edu/mccain, or by calling 785-532-6428.
