Whether it’s from Season 1 of Abbott Elementary or his stand-up or his bars or from the beautiful chaos that was Vice Live, we would hope that, by this point, you’ve become acquainted with and revel in Zack Fox‘s comedy. Fox’s unabashed, self-styled satire is one of Atlanta’s best comedy exports in recent memory and has quickly gained a cult following, which continues to grow as you read this.

He is just about to wrap up a big tour that spanned both Europe and North America, but he has two dates left that just happen to hop from LA to NYC. That’s right, Zack Fox is going from coast to coast, The Fonda Theatre in LA to Irving Plaza in NYC on Wed. Nov. 30th and Fri. Dec. 9th respectively with rapper TisaKorean opening both dates.

Tickets are going for $54 and you better get in on them before they’re all gone. Do it right now.

If the CA primary election this week was any indication, there is a lot more work we’ll need to do for those in need, especially in LA. It’ll be organizations like Friendly House LA that offer “a safe, structured and supportive home-like environment that fosters recovery for women seeking recovery from alcohol and other substance abuse disorders,” that will pick up the crucial slack that either the LA city or county government might not be picking up.

As such, Rosie O’Donnell is putting on a big comedy benefit for Friendly House LA at The Fonda Theater on Sat. Jul. 16th at 8:30PM PT with a stellar line-up of Atsuko Okatsuka, Beth Lapides, Gina Yashere, and Kathy Griffin. Honestly, you might not see this particular collection of great female comedians crossing several generations ever again (i.e. don’t miss out). Tickets are on sale starting at $80 and you can (and should) go snag them here.

With the horrific damage that the fires took on California, there are plenty of big, fantastic benefit shows coming up that will raise money for victims of said fires.

This includes:

Judd & Adam & Friends @ Largo at the Coronet Theatre Fri. Dec. 14th 8PM (currently sold out)

Holidaze! @ Dynasty Typewriter Fri. Dec. 14th 7PM, $15 in adv., $20 at door

The Comedy Store Festival @ Fonda Theatre Sat Dec. 15th 8PM $46-$131

If you can swing it, you should go to all of them as they’re all very stacked line-ups and, in the spirit of the holidays, it’s a great opportunity to give to people very much in need.

The comedy alone for this show is worth going, but there will be great music and it’s for a good cause.
