About

I know how corporate structures work. I think most of them are antiquated.

Madison Walser is a comedian, writer, and producer originally from Texas, now based in Los Angeles. Her observational style pulls from dating, politics, religion, and the general chaos of being a woman with “too many” opinions. Her humor often discusses why social norms are kind of weird and incorporates a dark twang.

She co-created and produced the Heated Rivalry Comedy Show and hosts Doctor Walser, a podcast where she and her dad turn uncomfortable medical conversations into surprisingly comfortable ones. She founded PUTRE to help audiences discover film, TV, and stand-up from indie creators, and has been featured in CNN, WSJ, and NY Mag for her satirical work.
