No joke: Comedian Paula Poundstone is set to perform at the Jay and Linda Grunin Center for the Arts, at Ocean County College, at 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 13. As OCC notes, “Poundstone is known for her smart, observational humor and a spontaneous wit that has become the stuff of legend.

“Time magazine, in the March 2020 ‘Best of’ issue, listed Paula’s HBO special ‘Cats, Cops and Stuff’ as one of the five funniest stand-up specials ever,” the college added.
