One of the best and most unique storytelling shows around is coming around again.

A unifying bond of comedians is the painful, cringeworthy start that they all had. Giulia Rozzi’s show First Set gathers comedians that are very funny and revisits those beginnings as well as contrasts it with honed, well-crafted comedy that they currently do. It’s like Mortified, but specifically for stand-up.

Baron Vaughn, Ramon Rivas, Melissa McQueen, and Jade Catta-Preta will be showcasing their comedy “then vs. now” next Monday at UCB Sunset.

Tickets are $5 and you can (and should) get them here.

Judge Aaron Persky is the judge who infamously handled the Brock Turner rape case. 

This show, happening tomorrow at El Cid in Silverlake, is an awesome comedy benefit to raise funds to get him on the ballot in order to get him recalled (as opposed to him just getting running opposed for several more years). 

Along with a great show featuring the comedy stylings of Ever Mainard, Maggie Maye, Janine Brito, Mara Wilson, and more, there will be a raffle prizes and F*ck Rape Culture merch.

Netflix has nabbed several golden geese with lining-up comedy specials from Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, Louis CK, Amy Schumer, and Jerry Seinfeld. 

That doesn’t mean they want to do comedy specials with some of comedy’s best rising stars. 

So, with that in mind, they’ve gathered Nikki Glaser, Deon Cole, Beth Stelling, Fortune Feimster, and Dan Soder for half hour comedy specials, which is the next logical step for Netflix’s ever expanding stand-up and comedy empire.

If you’re in LA on Tuesday, February 28th and/or Wednesday, March 1st you can go the tapings at Cicada Restaurant in DTLA. RSVP for tickets here.

Here’s an opportunity to take a break from speaking out at actual town halls and enjoy a fake “American Town Hall” next week where all you need to do is laugh at “citizen speakers” from Newport, RI. 

It’s $5 at the door and the ticket sales go to ACLU, so you’re still doing a good thing by going.

Arguably, Hot Tub with Kurt and Kristen is one of the best comedy shows in the country, maybe even the world. It has become a staple in both LA and NYC that’s pretty much sold to capacity every week well over a whole decade. 

This 12th Anniversary of Hot Tub that’s happening tomorrow is actually sold out, but there will be a small number of tickets available at the door. Both Kurt and Kristen will do some of their classic sketches in addition to the killer line-up that they always have. 

This Monday night, February 20th, doors will be open at 7PM at The Virgil (we’re guessing some might be lining up well before that), tickets will be at $8 at the door, and the show will start at 8PM.

Tomorrow night, Lindsay Ames’ My Diary will gather some of the best people from every corner of comedy and has them share a part of a diary that they kept at some point in their life. This usually includes accompanying pictures that show just how “expressive” they were in writing in their most private correspondence. 

John Early, who you probably just saw on The Tonight Show, the voice of one of the new Powerpuff Girls Natalie Palamides, and Baron Vaughn (both on late night and in Grace & Frankie) is just half of this fine line-up.

Tickets are $7 and you can (and should) get them here.
