PAUSE with Sam Jay is half-hour, late night talk series created by Emmy-nominated writer and stand-up comedian Sam Jay (Saturday Night Live, Sam Jay: 3 In The Morning) and Prentice Penny (HBO’s Insecure) that takes a new approach to late-night conversations and plunges into the cultural issues that divide us from a fresh lens.

Each week, Sam hosts a party at her apartment, where she and her guests explore current topics.

In an era of discord, Sam sets out to listen, learn, and ask questions to those with different perspectives.
