As live comedy is returning to some of the pace and volume that it used to be, so are exclusive tapings of comedy specials for big time networks and streaming services (and it won’t be something unprecedented like a drive-in or sitting at a converted part of Universal Studios).

The latest high profile special that will be taped will feature Phoebe Robinson, whom you ought to know from 2 Dope Queens/Doing the Most/Tiny Rep Books/guest hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, for HBO Max. Robinson will be bringing her first hour filled with her hot takes on the world that are equal parts sharp and bubbly to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden on Fri. Aug. 13th for two shows, 8PM ET & 10PM ET.

Best of all, tickets are free and you best go RSVP for them right here right now.

Kurt Braunohler indeed is taping an hour long stand-up special for Comedy Central. Called Trust Me, he’ll be taping it in Portland, OR at Revolution Hall on Saturday, September 24th.

Given his skywriting, jet skiing, driving a giant butt cross country, and other such large scale acts of absurdity, we personally can’t wait to see what Kurt does with an hour of stand-up on national television.

If you can go, you should go and you can get free tickets here.

Jim Bruce has been around the LA comedy scene for awhile and his stand up has been sort of a hidden gem even though he’s played in so many places in this city over the years.

Bruce is taping a comedy special, I’m Dying as Fast as I Can, at The Westside Comedy Theater next week on Sun. Oct. 6th at 7PM after raising the money on Kickstarter to do so and we think you should attend not only to support indie comedy without the backing of a label, brand, etc., but someone who definitely knows how to pull off great jokes about death and suicide.
