One of the most brilliant comedians we\u2019ve had the pleasure of working with in the past 16 years of doing Feast of Fun is Amanda Cohen. We met Amanda through a Craigslist Ad we placed for our live musical variety shows looking for a woman with a big personality and bosom to match.
Often mistaken for someone else at her comedy shows, Amanda was known to our audience as Amanda Steinstein, a character developed for the live shows which combined a pinch of Fran Drescher, a smidgen of Grace Slick and a whole lotta Dr. Who, or in her case, Dr. What!?
So when we heard she got cast on To Tell the Truth in a double whammy as a Bug Baker and Aquanaut, we knew it was going to be good.
Today comedian Amanda Cohen, best known to long time listeners as Amanda Steinstein, joins us to look back at all the people she\u2019s been mistaken for: someone\u2019s mom, a truck driving lesbian, a bug baker and an aquanaut.
