Whether it’s a more traditional stand-up show or a webinar panel discussion or something else altogether, a line-up of Maria Bamford, Wyatt Cenac, Tyler Davis, and Chris Gethard is something that you should show up for.

The Wrap and Topic are bringing us all such a panel discussion entitled Comedy, Coping, & Change: Finding Hope in Humor and we have no doubt that it’ll be the sort of conversation that’s heartfelt, riveting, funny, and healing, especially with a line-up that has channeled so much of their energy and comedy towards changing attitudes on mental health, social justice/reform, and overall humanity.

This Comedy, Coping, & Change: Finding Hope in Humor panel is set for this Tues. 6/30 at 4:30PM PT/7:30PM ET. All you have to do to join in RSVP here.

A special edition of Drunk Ed. is going to talk about one of most pressing issues right now, toxic masculinity and its systemic abuse, with a great line-up of folks involved in and throughout comedy, entertainment, etc. (i.e. industries where sexual harassment is being purged most harshly right now).

Not only will be an important and cathartic evening, but proceeds will go towards RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network), the largest anti-sexual violence organization in the U.S.

Tickets are $5. Get them here.

Watch “Son of Zorn” Cast and Creators Explain the Show (and Go Off the Rails Doing So) Before Tonight’s Special Preview

Tonight, the live-action-animation hybrid Son of Zorn will follow a NFL doubleheader on Fox around 8PM and give you a taste of what the clashing of mythical and magical Zephyrian universe and the suburbs of Orange County is like.

Before that, you should really watch the creators and cast of Son of Zorn in a panel discussion of the series for this season. It not only gives a better sense of how the show works, but the panel really got fun, silly, and loose.

Again, the special preview of Son of Zorn is scheduled for 8PM on Fox, with exception to overtime during the NFL doubleheader.

With Reunited, Josh Androsky and Bryan Cook have devised a faux panel discussion series that brings together the cast of a sitcom that never existed. On top of that, the real comedians that were supposedly on said sitcom have no idea what that sitcom was called or what it was about until the show starts.

As you might imagine, the behind-the-scenes of the sitcom wasn’t a happily-ever-after story, which makes for a really “great” reunion.

The latest edition has James Urbaniak, Baron Vaughn, Hampton Yount, and a special guest.

It’s going down at 8:30PM on Friday, April 8th at The Hollywood Improv Comedy Lab and tickets are only $5.

So, Paul F. Tompkins Will Be Hosting a Political Panel Discussion Show with Puppets Premiering Tonight on Fusion

We have gotten to the bottom of the mysterious pictures of Paul F. Tompkins sitting on a crossfire debate like TV set with a bunch of puppets that have been floating around online over the last week or so.

It turns out that Paul will indeed be hosting a panel discussion show on politics (and probably more) with puppets on brand spanking new network Fusion (check if you can get it here) called No, You Shut Up airing on Fridays at 9:30PM.

Yes, that means it premieres tonight 9:30PM.
