With or without a pandemic, the issue of mental health is so vitally important and yet, even after all the progress that has been made over the last few years, is still not regarded seriously enough. With COVID-19 still keeping us so isolated, more so than most of us have ever been, the importance of one’s mental health has become more glaringly clear.

So, along those lines, wonderful LA based comedians Atsuko Okatsuka and Maddie Connors are hosting a special benefit show, NORMALIZE ANYTHING, that will raise money for for Painted Brain, a marvelous LA based mental health org.

Joining Atsuko and Maddie will be the very special comedic stylings of Jeena Bloom, Johan Miranda, and Kazu Kusano (FYI, they are all comics whose parents suffer from mental illness and are perfect for a show such as this).

RSVP, donate, and tune in to NORMALIZE EVERYTHING this Sat. Dec. 19th at 7PM PT/10PM ET.

Support Johan Miranda on Patreon, a Great Up and Coming Comedian Who Is Also a DACA Recipient (i.e. Whether He’ll Be Able to Work and Stay in the Country Is Up in the Air Right Now)

Johan Miranda has cemented himself in LA’s vast comedy scene and is one of many that deserves to stay in our good ol’ US of A.

From fellow comedian Clare O’Kane:

“Your friend and mine, mister Johan Miranda, is currently looking for work as a comedy writer. Johan was a recipient of DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) “an executive action that provides a work permit and deportation reprieve to people who were brought to the U.S. as children and stayed illegally."Dingus Trump claims he will do away with DACA when he is in the Whitest House U’ Know. IF he follows through with this, our bud Johan will have his work permit revoked and he will no longer be able to legally work in the US. This will make life harder for our friend, so let’s do what we can to help him. Below is a link to Johan’s Patreon page. Here you can set up a monthly donation for Johan while he continues to pursue a career in comedy writing. Johan is one of the most talented, kindhearted dudes I know. Let’s help Johan stay/work/party in America.”

The link to his Patreon page is above.
