And Now For a Cathartic Election Day Web Series from Jena Friedman

November 3, 2020
News
antifa, call and response, call you reps, election day, jena friedman, john mcafee

While Jena Friedman is going to be on Stephen Colbert’s Election Night special on Showtime that you’ll be able to check out later this evening (provided that you’re not cutting yourself off from all media to stay sane for the next couple of days), you can and should watch her very own exclusive, Election Day 2020 web series that you could almost think of as a handful of splendid segments on one of her Adult Swim Soft Focus specials.

She posted all four episodes early this morning and they don’t disappoint as they feature Jena drunkenly calling her local reps, checking in with the deranged former cybersecurity mogul John McAfee, and cameo appearances from her irresistible pooch, Potato.

As we head into the part of Election Day that people are going to hone in on returns (even through the unprecedented amount of mail-in ballots will postpone final results for awhile), please get some catharsis and joy from Jena here.

Whether you’re missing The New Negroes and/or you enjoy the beautiful comedy of Baron Vaughn and the fantastic music of Open Mike Eagle and/or you support the need for their to be more amplified representation of BIPOC in media, you’ll be happy to know that Baron and Mike are getting a brand new live-stream show Call & Response.

Their show New Negroes focused on presenting a class of black comedians that should been on your radar and featured plenty of sketch/music video hybrids. Call & Response is going to expand their reach and have a much more topical bent with Vaughn and Eagle talking with all sorts of creatives about this current historical moment, how they’re part of it, and what to do going forward.

Best of all, you’ll get this crucial delight of a variety talk show daily from Funny or Die and Blavity.

Specifically, the show will be live-streamed every day at 12PM PT/3PM ET starting Tues. Jun. 16th at all these places:
Funny or Die’s channels on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, and Twitch
Blavity’s channels on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook
