airliner, brandon vaughn, broke beast, burbank, cheap, cnn comedy, comedy news, comedy shows, compatish, eddie pepitone, free, fullerton, glendale, hollywood, live, los angeles, open mic, silverlake, submissions, ucb, what to do

1) CNN takes a look at comedy after 9/11 with Bill Burr, Chris Hardwick, Marc Maron, and Rob Riggle. [via Laughspin]

2) A Kumail Nanjiani bit about heroin gets the cartoon pony treatment. 

3) Expanded thoughts on the Oschack-USC debacle on Laughspin.

4) “Broke Beast”, an art-music-performance extravaganza on Oct. 15th, is taking submissions for stand-up comedy.

5) The season finale of the Compatish, which pits the gang in a contest of painting trees, can be decided by whose painting is sold for the most money on eBay. So far, someone is going to pay $10 for Adam’s “snatch tree”.

6) Dan Dringle gives you a couple great reasons to buy a Motorola Tablet and maybe a hug.

7) You may think that doing comedy on a megaphone outdoors at a park might not work, but we wholeheartedly disagree.

8) Puddin’-“Hot Pocket”

1) Comedy Legend Don Rickles on Leno Part 1 & 2.

2) It should be obvious what measures you should take if accusing someone of joke thievery, but here’s a pretty comprehensive list on Splitsider, just in case you’re the comedy equivalent of sue-happy.

3) Yesterday, NBC’s Community Showrunner Dan Harmon had a great post about meeting George Gallo, the writer of Midnight Run and the magic of trying to do anything creative. If you haven’t already reblogged it, give it a read.

4) Best 30 Minutes or Less Podcasts from the Plop List

5) If you’re not reading the fantastic daily thoughts of Matt Champagne, perhaps start now by reading a conversation wherein Princess Leia hits on C-3PO.

C-3PO: Might I remind you, Princess, that I am a droid?
LEIA: Your excuses are so cute.
C-3PO: I am fluent in nearly all forms of verbal communication.
LEIA: Oh, I can think of one form you’re definitely not fluent in.

6) Puddin’-Touche

7) Stuff that you might have missed yesterday that we really think you should watch again: the new episode of the Compatish and Ryan Hansen “pranking” the Midnight Show.

Ryan Hansen Pranks The Midnight Show – watch more funny videos

11) Designer and writer David Yoon wants to make LA streets narrower so it can be Paris.  If you want LA to be Paris, go to Paris and stop complaining, just like those people who hate our hot dogs here vs. their hot dogs from wherever they came from.

alhambra, arcadia, cafe muse, cheap, comedy news, comedy shows, compatish, conan, echo park, eddie pepitone, encino, free, head to head, high school talent show, hollywood, jon dore, los angeles, meltdown, mitzi shore, nerdist theater, open mic, rory scovel, santa monica, weird al yankovic, west hollywood, what to do

1) Watch comedic brilliance by Jon Dore & Rory Scovel on Conan. Oh yeah, they might do the same thing at Meltdown Comics on August 11th.

2) Want to be on a “High School Talent Show”?

Hot House, which normally hosts a fantastic “secret” comedy show, is putting the 3rd Annual Hot House High School Talent Show.  Already, it’s half booked, but if you’re interested, the show is on Thurs. July 21st 8PM and they’re looking to book all types of variety/comedy/character acts of varying lengths – but – no stand up (unless it is part of a larger character piece).

The basic theme of the night is the show takes place in a High School Auditorium hosted by the Vice Principal of Affairs.  Talent must decide up front whether to play a Student or an Administrator. And all acts should be between thirty seconds to three minutes (five if there is a real need) And let us know the general concept beforehand.

Nothing is too small or too stupid.  Please email mariecolette24@gmail.com if interested.

3) So Café Muse, to those comedians that put up with its open mic or shows, is now gone.  No more comedy will take place within its walls despite it being next door to the Comedy Central Stages.  We’re frankly surprised that it lasted this long as every time we’ve been there something along the lines of a frustrated white kid in his late 20’s would ask anyone who was black to be his black friend 5 minutes over the light would happen.

4) Don’t follow @MitziShore.  It’s not her.  Besides, gaining favor with her and an audition to be passed at the Comedy Store is a whole lot harder than just getting a fake account of her to follow you on Twitter.

5) Compatish goes cup stacking…

6) Weird Al Yankovic writes/confesses lyrics for the Conan theme.

7) Puddin’-“Books”

8) ON THE HORIZON
California for Alabama Benefit @ Meltdown Comics Wed. Aug. 3rd, 6:30PM $10
The Business @ Nerdist Theater Fri. July 15th, 8PM $10

9) COMEDY CRAWL

10) OPEN MIC RUN
SAL’S COMEDY HOLE 7356 Melrose Ave., Hollywood, CA 6PM/$4 minimum/first come, first served
COFEE BEAN 16101 Ventura Blvd., Encino, CA, Suite 180/Starts 7PM/mixed mic/no purchase necessary

11) I tried defending Tree of Life to my sister and mother who sat through it with me and the best I could come up with was, “Well, it’s best if you don’t try to figure it out.”  Now, if I only could write jokes that work like that.
