The anniversary of lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic is not something that’s really all that much to celebrate or be happy about.

However, the anniversary of Sydnee Washington’s wondrous comedy cooking/panel show, Syd Can Cook, is indeed something to actually excited for. Since the beginning of lockdown, Sydnee has dove into uncharted waters by broadcasting her cooking in her apartment as someone who was not an expert chef and allowed an esteemed panel of the funniest people she knows help/roast her during the whole process.

Normally, the show would stream on IG Live, but this particular edition is getting a nice upgrade by live-streaming from Streamyard. The Syd Can Cook Anniversary is going to be a primetime event (on Sat. Mar. 20th at 4PM PT/7PM ET) with a primetime line-up that includes co-host Marie Faustin and Rachel Sennott, Laci Mosely, Dulce Sloan, Dee Nasty, Devon Walker, Naomi McPherson, and Delina Medhin.

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

Pick of the Day: Padma Puts On a Virtual Comedy Show 12/17

We told you that there would be plenty of big time comedy benefit shows for the Georgia Runoffs and, lordy lordy, there sure are. This latest one is being put up by the one and only Padma Lakshmi that’s very explicit in this regard by being called, “Padma Puts on a Virtual Comedy Show for the Georgia Runoff Elections: An Evening to Benefit FairFight”.

Stacey Abrams’ FairFight was instrumental in registering voters and contributing to Biden’s 2020 Election win and will undoubtedly be crucial in the upcoming special Georgia Senate Runoffs.

So, they tapped Padma for a live benefit show and she, in turn, got one hell of a line-up that includes:

Hasan Minhaj, Phoebe Robinson, Sarah Silverman, Chelsea Peretti, Kumail Nanjiani, Emily V. Gordon, Benito Skinner, Mike Birbiglia, John Early, Roy Wood Jr., Julio Torres, Michelle Buteau, Patton Oswalt, Aparna Nancherla, Caleb Hearon, Wanda Sykes, Joel Kim Booster, Tituss Burgess, Meg Stalter, Patti Harrison, Nikki Glaser, Ayo Edebiri, Jo Firestone, Amber Ruffin, Dulce Sloan, Naomi Ekperigin, W. Kamau Bell, Mitra Jouhari, Sydnee Washington, Marie Faustin, and Andy Cohen.

There will also be music from King Princess, Perfume Genius, Waxahatchee, Brittany Howard, Local Natives, Aloe Blacc, and Cautious Clay.

Lastly, the evening’s virtual festivities will be hosted by none other than the Las Culturistas themselves, Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang.

Reads like a festival line-up, doesn’t it? Well, we still can’t do that in person right now, but you can enjoy this gigantic Padma Puts on a Virtual Comedy Show comedy live-stream on Thurs. Dec. 17th at 6PM PT/9PM ET at youtube.com/padmalakshmi and donate to FairFight here.

The mighty Dynasty Typewriter is expanding their live-streamed offering and have got it a very special show with Dynasty Confidential coming this Friday. The close and personal secrets of comedians will be revealed to Joel Kim Booster and then, he’ll do with it whatever he pleases.

Hearing secrets is already enough for a show, but giving free reign for Joel Kim Booster to do something with those potentially damning words will be so much damn fun. Those brave enough to be on this line-up are Catherine Cohen, Amy Zimmer, Bryan Yang, Marie Faustin, and Karen Chee (this special NYC line-up would dazzle even if they were just doing stand-up, FYI).

Dynasty Confidential is set to stream this Fri. May 29th 6PM PT/9PM ET. Tickets are $8.68 and you can and should go get them here (they’ll send you a Zoom link w/purchase of tickets).
