Welp, it’s another week (or few weeks more like it) of many live, in-person comedy shows going dark due to the current COVID-19 surge that will no doubt be bolstered by Christmas and NYE.

Thus, it’s a great time to remind you all that virtual comedy didn’t complete die out even though you very well might have checked out from it over a year ago. Also, there are a handful of folks that really figured out and managed to curate a great show on Zoom. One such show has been and still is legendary alt comedy show, UnCabaret. They’ve been doing a virtual edition of their show for a long stretch of the pandemic then opted to alternate between in-person and virtual when creator/host Beth Lapides took to the stage once more in 2021.

So, if you’re looking for some live comedy to look forward to that’s definitely happening and won’t risk your health with getting infecting with the Delta or Omicron variants of COVID-19, look no further than this Sun. Jan. 9th at 7:30PM PT for the latest virtual edition that will feature the likes of Julia Sweeney, Erin Foley, Jen Kirkman, Judy Gold, Justin Sayre and Jamie Bridgers as well as Beth and UnCabaret’s band leader, Mitch Kaplan, and their very tight house band.

RSVP for this Sunday here; admission is free, but they do take donations.

Erin Foley is such a fierce delight as a comedian. Time and time again, she has proven this with her other hours of stand-up and whenever we’ve seen her live in town over many years. Deep Dive, her latest album, is yet another great offering that holds up our above description of Foley.

Erin, in a manner speaking, performs the hell out of her jokes in such an awesome way that we’re on board for whatever hot takes she’s dishing out on sports, LGBTQ, getting older, etc. There are well-crafted jokes about those very topics on Deep Dive, but, as always, the delivery, timing, and even the timbre of her voice are so hilarious and gratifying to listen to and watch. Truly, she can be angry and charming at the same time, making this an album you really ought to get.

So, go get Deep Dive out now from 800 Pound Gorilla Records here.

Could this companion possibly could be more compelling than The Bachelor itself?

Beloved firebrand of a comedian, The Bitter Buddha, Eddie Pepitone has joined in on a new show companion podcast Will You Accept This Rose? where Arden Myrin and Erin Foley, Bachelor superfan and historian respectively and also comedians, discuss (you probably guessed it) the latest happenings on The Bachelor.

Take note, Eddie has never been into The Bachelor as he is listed in the show description as “reluctant Bachelor novice” and will be the stark contrast that should make this podcast transcend above just being a companion podcast or even the manufactured reality of this show’s source material.

Get into Will You Accept This Rose? here.
