As far as comedy power couples go, there should be a lot more love and admiration for Naomi Ekperigin and Andy Beckerman, also known as the two hosts of the amazing podcast Couples Therapy. For five years, Ekperigin and Beckerman, both wonderful comedians/writers on their own (don’t forget that Naomi is one of the best parts of Mythic Quest) and guests have shared the humorous beauty of working things out between relationship partners, especially when quarantine hit.

This podcast isn’t the hit Showtime series of the same name, but, honestly, both things are so amazing, FYI.

To celebrate the occasion, they’re throwing a big 5th Anniversary for Couples Therapy outdoor shindig at one of LA’s new comedy hot spots, Permanent Records Roadhouse (that you can also live-stream if you’re still very much into not leaving your home like Naomi and Andy) on Fri. Jul. 7th at 7PM. Joining them will be the stories and comedy gems of Laci Mosley, Nori Reed, and Shantira Jackson.

Tickets are $10 right now and $10 for live-stream (and $15 for in-person on the day of) and you can (and should) go get them here.

Finally, at long last, Hot Tub with Kurt Braunohler & Kristen Schaal is returning (again). There was a brief window last year where we got some semblance of what we left on Mondays nights in 2019, but then it went away again (and we didn’t know how long it would be gone this time).

Thank gracious goodness that Hot Tub with Kurt & Kristen, one of LA comedy’s most venerable weekly comedy shows, is coming to a new home starting next week with a new day as well. Starting Jan. 11th, Hot Tub with Kurt & Kristen will be at Permanent Records Roadhouse in Cypress Park/Glassell Park on Wednesdays at 8PM sharp.

This first 2023 Hot Tub will, as you’d expect, will have an unbelievably stacked line-up of treasured comedians that just happen to reside in the City of Angels including Nick Kroll, Sheng Wang, Christina Catherine Martinez, Blair Socci, and Sophie Buddle.

Advanced tickets are already sold out, but there will be door tickets available for $12. Note that you’ll probably want to be there early if you want to be able to snag them (the pupusas a couple doors down is a pretty great option while you wait, FYI).

Follow @hottub_show closely to get advanced tickets for the coming weeks.

It was only a few short weeks ago that LA comedy favorites James Austin Johnson and Sarah Squirm were plucked to be on SNL and blazing a trail ever since. SNL is taking a week off and letting them do whatever they want, which, thankfully, includes coming back to LA and getting in on shows here once more.

One of them will be the show that JAJ help found, Rod Stewart Live, now happening at Permanent Records Roadhouse in the Eastside’s Glassell Park this coming Wed. Oct. 27th at 8PM PT. They’ll be joined by an equally fantastic bill of Solomon Georgio and James Adomian and RSL co-hosts Sam Wiles and Zach Pugh.

The show is only $10 (proof of vaccination required). Go get your tickets here before they sell out (they usually sell out anyway and we bet this’ll go even faster.
