Hard Knock Wife's most inspired moments come from Wong's ability to make the natural sound almost alien, and sometimes even downright terrifying. December 27, 2018 | Full Review…

Wong uses her body and her subject matter to challenge you, but Wolf pushes the limits in every joke with a distinctive, high-pitched voice that is easy to hate. It's a cloying screech that she acknowledges sure, but it never goes away. November 20, 2018 | Full Review…

[Wong's] new set is filled with searing takes on the limits of maternity leave and the disappointments of early motherhood. Dad jokes, step aside. November 20, 2018 | Full Review…

A fierce and very pregnant Wong holds forth for an hour on the challenges of breastfeeding, juggling family and career post-pregnancy - and also why all women deserve three years of fully paid maternity leave. December 27, 2018 | Full Review…

Motherhood itself isn't a political act, but the various ways facets of society rise up to tell women how to be a mother are, certainly. The beauty of Hard Knock Wife is in hearing these gnarlier truths explored with filthy and honest verve. June 14, 2018 | Full Review…

If you don't see how skilled, blunt, and trill Ali Wong is then you never deserved comedy in the first place. Ali is blunt, cynical, and raw as f***. June 14, 2018 | Full Review…
