Let’s face it. You’re probably not getting back into the swing things from the holidays into 2018 until next week. A nice way to ease into the new year if that’s indeed your plan is going to afternoon comedy show on Saturday with the likes of Kyle Kinane, Billy Wayne Davis, Megan Gailey, David Gborie, Maggie Maye, Danielle Perez, Josh Androsky, Jamie Loftus, Ryan Singer, Allen Strickland Williams, Erin Lampart, Barbara Gray, and Steph Tolev at a dive bar.

With that in mind, catch Chicago’s Late Late Breakfast from Tyler Jackson and Danny Maupin at Silverlake Lounge (2906 W. Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles, CA) this Saturday, Jan. 6th at 4PM (Doors at 3PM) for what should be a lovely way to sober up for the first Monday where everyone goes back to work. Donations will be accepted.

They’re going to have “Three hardcore Christians compete against three hardcore Satanists to answer the question [of whether their is a War on Christmas] once and for all!” plus other holiday surprises like doppelgänger piñatas and “Chanukah Chorror Stories”

So, it would behoove you to not miss Natalie’s latest endeavor, whatever it may be, in these coming weeks at the Lyric Hyperion (especially because they’re free).

In case you haven’t noticed in LA, there has been a lot of comics doing more extended sets for various submissions to networks or streaming services (or maybe just do an extended set because stage time is a precious commodity out here). That means a lot of our favorite comics in LA that don’t normally get to do a half hour or more are also doing a half-hour or even a hour coming up.

This includes:

Robert Buscemi taping an hour @ Lyric Hyperion Fri., Nov. 24 9PM FREE w/RSVP
Half hours from Dan Telfer, Brandie Posey, Lisa Curry, and Kyle Clark @ The Clubhouse 9PM Sat. Nov. 25 FREE
Half hours from April Richardson & Eliza Skinner @ UCB Franklin Sun. Nov. 26th 11PM $5
Half hours from Simon Gibson & MK Paulsen @ The Clubhouse Wed. Nov. 29th 8PM FREE
An extended set from Joe Kwaczala @ Nerdmelt Showroom Thurs. Dec. 7th 9PM $8 in adv., $10 at door

Go to all of these please. Links for more details and tickets above.

Through thorough surveillance of our own employees at The Comedy Bureau, we have found that talking at a water cooler during your break is one of the best parts of people’s day. 

So, we’re trying desperately to copy that “vibe” and bring it to you in a night of comedy with our personal favorites that we’ve had our eyes on for years. 

With assistance from Deep Eddy Vodka and DoLA, we will present comedic performances from  Laurie Kilmartin, Joe DeRosa, Michael Rayner, David Gborie for “Water Cooler Talk” to be hosted by TCB’s own Jake Kroeger. 

Cool (and hungry) people should arrive early for free pizza from Prufrock Pizzeria between 7PM and 8PM while supplies last!

Water Cooler Talk will commence at The Love Song Bar on Tuesday, December 5th with doors open (and, again, free gourmet pizza) at 7PM and the show starting promptly at 8PM.
