Josh Fadem & Dicker Troy (Johnny Pemberton as a truck driver/DJ/wiseman with a modulated voice) is one of the funniest things going on in LA right now (you can catch them at the end of the month in LA at The Satellite). 

So, if you’re in SF, Portland, Vancouver or Seattle in February, do not miss a show that’s equal parts whimsy, chaos, tomfoolery, alternate dimensions, slapstick, and jokes.

Kurt Braunohler indeed is taping an hour long stand-up special for Comedy Central. Called Trust Me, he’ll be taping it in Portland, OR at Revolution Hall on Saturday, September 24th.

Given his skywriting, jet skiing, driving a giant butt cross country, and other such large scale acts of absurdity, we personally can’t wait to see what Kurt does with an hour of stand-up on national television.

If you can go, you should go and you can get free tickets here.

The Portland Mercury has discovered on the streets of Portland that flyers for the festival have been covered up or replaced entirely by an altered flyer that claims that the festival is being put together by “feminazis”. 

There is a Craigslist post that also calls for a protest throughout the festival’s duration.
