How exactly does one go from being a runway model to a standup comic? The hilarious Aida Rodriguez stopped by the KFOG studios to explain her unusual career trajectory and how she fights to spread a message through her comedy.

Aida was recently tapped by The Young Turks to join their network as a news commentator and recently became one of the first people to have a comedy special run on both Showtime and HBO in the same month.

Check out the interview below and make sure you catch Aida this weekend at the Punchline Comedy Club in San Francisco.
