You’re well aware that the COVID-19 pandemic persists and that it will for a good number of months ahead as the curve has not flattened and that life seems unsure like it was March/April.

With that in mind, it’s fair to say that a Barbie Dream House wouldn’t be the same for these times either. Sara Schaefer went ahead and actualized what that might look and created a great, timely, and hilarious sketch for the quarantine life and societal uprising that we’re all a part of now.

Enjoy Sara Schaefer’s Quarantine Dream House here.

Forget all of those other stories about meeting up at a McDonald’s parking lot or walking six feet apart with someone that you’ve been on Zoom or FaceTime with off of dating app. Frankie Quinones and Donny Divanian, both from the amazing sketch group/series Dress Up Gang, show how you to properly romance your significant other during quarantine in a pretty safe, definitely distanced way.

Please enjoy (and take some cues from) Juanita Carmelita and Peter’s meet-up here.

Kurt Braunohler and Lauren Cook Find a Very Special Therapist for “Quarantine Therapy”

The way that we’ve all been stuck indoors has probably brought many people past the point of going stir-crazy into meltdowns, outbursts, etc. with their families or whomever they’re quarantined with. Therapy has always been important, but it’s an absolutely vital service to have someone to talk in these pandemic times.

That’s why husband/comedian Kurt Braunohler and wife/storyteller Lauren Cook sought out a “very special” therapist to deal with the strain of their relationship and made a short/sketch to “document” how they’re working through the unprecedented stress/anxiety brought about COVID-19.

Please enjoy “Quarantine Therapy” here.

It’s hard to find someone to listen.

The Comedy Bureau Field Report Ep. 5: Ahamed Weinberg/Nick Nemeroff & Quarantine Beef

News, The Comedy Bureau Field Report

Well, this was a wild one. Let’s just say that as the weeks have gone on, quarantine is driving people up the wall even if they just fully recovered from contracting COVID-19 like Ahamed Weinberg or released an amazing comedy album The Pursuit of Comedy Has Ruined My Life like Nick Nemeroff. Both are very, very funny comedians that are on the upswing right now and yet, these uncertain times can still throw a wrench in everything as was shown in their wayward “conversation” with TCB’s Jake Kroeger. All of that said, there is a Parks and Recreation reunion, Jamel Johnson’s new audience-less special Friend or Foe, and even three one-hour long improv specials from Middleditch & Schwartz to really help us not go stir crazy like Ahamed, Nick, and Jake.

Follow Ahamed @ahamedweinberg on Instagram & Twitter and do the same for Nick Nemeroff @nicknemeroff. Once again, get Nemeroff’s fantastic album The Pursuit of Comedy Has Ruined My Life. The Comedy Bureau @thecomedybureau across platforms and please, please support TCB via GoFundMe, Patreon, or on Venmo (@jakekroeger).
