Happy Presidents Day! We hope you have the day off, and, if you don’t, we hope your commute was as devoid of annoying humans as possible. If you would like to carry the holiday vibe into the work week, then it’s time for some 2020 VISION. This Thursday at NYC’s Improv Asylum meet “The Next Celebrity President!” Come see your favorite celebs debate each other to become the next person barking out all the orders. The hour-long show will feature comedians performing impressions of celebs like Billie Eilish, Kourtney Kardashian, Tracy Morgan, Kourtney Kardashian, Cardi B, Tom Hanks, Ice T, and more! And because it’s a democratic event, the audience will get to choose the winner! The show will be hosted by Alex Preston with these talented performers taking the stage:
