So, an actual Reefer-Madness-esque 1938 flick called Sex Madness gets a wonderful dollop of meta humor in Sex Madness Revealed! via Patton Oswalt and magician Rob Zabrecky playing a snarky film podcast host and grandson of the Sex Madness director respectively. Throughout this “tell-all” version of the film, the two have suspenseful conversation about Sex Madness.

Dreamt up, written, and directed by Tim Kirk, this film Sex Madness Revealed! will its LA premiere at the Bootleg Theater and have Kirk as well as Oswalt and Zabrecky on hand for a Q&A. Also, this evening will serve as a benefit for the brand new Vidiots coming to Eagle Rock in 2020.

There are so many great reasons to go to this and tickets are only $15. Go get them here now.

At 11PM tonight, Showtime will be stepping into the late night arena and the arena itself will get a fresh, new spark introduced to it.

Check ‘em out at 11PM on Showtime (or, more likely, on their YouTube page tomorrow here).

It has been an entire year since we first got to marvel at the dark comedy wunderkind from Jake Weisman, Matt Ingebretson, and Pat Bishop known as Corporate on Comedy Central.

We got to preview the second season and it absolutely delivers the catharsis you need for the times we live in.

So, please treat yourself and catch the Corporate season 2 premiere tonight at 10:30PM on Comedy Central.
