Up Until April 15th, New Harmontown Livestream Subscriptions Will Be Matched with a Donation to the ACLU

There is plenty that you miss out on if you’re not seeing what is going down on the weekly live Harmontown podcast tapings at Nerdmelt. For that alone, it might be worth $5 a month, which includes access to a video archive of past tapings and a video blog from Dan Harmon himself.

Now, you’ll have an even better reason to subscribe now, if you haven’t done so already, as the podcast will match all the money it gets from new subscriptions until April 15th in the form of a donation to the ACLU.

If you’re interested in signing-up, do so here.

1) April 1st-There will be a piece about Downtown LA Comedy in the Los Angeles Times. Please look out for this.

2) At least the Shorty Awards (Twitter Awards) got one thing right: Conan O’Brien winning the Shorty Lifetime Achievement Award. @lord_Voldemort7 for humor. Yeah, right…

3) Earwolf, a podcast platform for many big comedy podcasts has a “secret project”. Besides it being called “Project Tippy Toe”, that’s all I can really say. [via Ploplist]

4) Bobby Bottleservice Joke Contest! Finish the joke, “Why did the mosquito cross the road?” to win tickets to a show with Conan O’Brien, Sarah Silverman, and Bottleservice’s alter-ego Nick Kroll, here in LA [via The Comic’s Comic]

5) Comedians Shayne Michael and Jeff Leon have started a Matching Funds program for other booked shows/open mics to pay featured performers. Yes, this what performing comedy in LA has come to.
