A descent into the psyche of Jamie Loftus is an experience that we’ve enjoyed reveling in for the last couple of years now.

So, a show that’s specifically themed to losing her virginity 7 years ago hosted by the man she lost her virginity to sounds pretty great to us.

Also, in Jamie’s own words, there will be:

– A STUPID-ASS PLAY WITH ME N BARBIE
– FREE ZINES FOR THOSE WHO RSVP IN ADVANCE
– ENTERTAINMENT B/W SCENES FROM LUMINARIES SUCH AS:
Lizzy Cooperman, Mira Gonzalez, Christina Catherine Martinez, Mitra Joy,Caitlin Durante, Alana Levinson, Corie Johnson, MY PARENTS Jill andMike, MY BROTHER Ben, MY OBOE TEACHER
– NEW CARTOONS FROM ME JAMIE
– THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE YOUR PHOTOGRAPH WITH A MASSIVE SEVERED HYMEN WHO WILL TELL YOUR FORTUNE
– LIVE COMMENTARY FROM STEVEN WHO ACTIVELY PARTICIPATED IN AUGUST 15 2010 INTHAT HE WAS THE ONE WHO TOOK FROM ME THAT WHICH I CAN NEVER GET BACK (CONSENSUALLY)

For what could be a life-altering show, donations will be accepted.

Often in LA, there are comedy shows that, for a myriad of reasons, happen in non-traditional spaces (salons, vintage stores, teepees). The novelty of the atypical venue adds charm, but only a handful of shows actually lean in to whatever space they’re in.

Full Moon Comedy, hosted by Charlie Bury, Lindsay Adams, and Aaron Weaver, takes advantage of being in the mystical supply and apothecary, The Green Man Store in North Hollywood. Guided meditations, prescriptions of crystals for comedians based on their sets, and actual folks that are in touch with the magical/spiritual/etc. world all happen at this show.

This latest edition of the show also has a fantastic line-up with Eddie Pepitone, The Sisters Puterbaugh, Renee Gauthier, and a very special ceremony from La Sound Healing.

Best of all, it’s free to attend. Get more details here.

Arguments and Grievances, the comedy debate podcast, is a great reminder that free speech in America allows for us to have heated discourse over such “essential” topics like “you’re crazy” vs. “no, you’re crazy” or 420 vs. 69.

Their latest show in LA will be free and at one of our favorite venues, The Virgil at the end of this month.
