News

It’s quite simple. It’s a grand line-up of comedy here in LA featuring the likes of Mae Martin, Nori Reed, Naomi Ekperigin, Solomon Georgio, Joel Kim Booster, and host Sabrina Jalees and one of the bigger tickets that has its proceeds going to abortion access.

Specifically, Sabrina and company will be performing in support of the National Network of Abortion Funds that will provide whatever they can to women who will be losing access to legal and safe abortions in the way-too-near future. This crucial show is happening on Tues. Jul. 19th at 8:30PM PT and one of LA comedy’s crown jewels, Largo at the Coronet Theatre.

Tickets are $46 (and that’s plenty going to NNAF) and you really need to go get your tickets here.

The weird week between Christmas and NYE has begun and on top of there being little going on and the little that was going on getting canceled due to Omicron, one has to wonder if there’s any hope to bring into 2022.

Well, one thing you could do is bring hope to the hysterical Ever Mainard and their upcoming top surgery so they can fully realize themselves as the amazing non-binary person and splendid comedian that they are. They’ve got a massively stacked line-up for their The Tops! A Top Surgery Fundraiser for Ever Mainard slated for Fri. Jan. 7th at 8PM at The Elysian with the likes of:

  • Meg Stalter
  • Libbie Higgins
  • Nori Reed
  • Naomi Ekperigin
  • Solomon Georgio
  • Lindsay Adams
  • Danielle Perez
  • Silver Lake Icon, Tony Soto
  • Alysia Brown

Ever will be presiding over hosting duties and it should be a good time (fingers crossed that it still gets to happen). In any case, you should buy a ticket to support Ever (oh yeah, there will be a bake sale to boot) for $20 and you can do so right here right now.

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.

Team Coco’s HBO Max Comedy Specials Start Streaming Next Month; More to Come Soon

Right before lockdown, Conan O’Brien’s Team Coco managed to shoot two hour long comedy specials, destined for HBO Max, from the amazing Beth Stelling and James Veitch. More specials that they had planned to shoot got postponed because of COVID-19 shutting down production right around their shoot dates.

Still, those special are set to start streaming on HBO’s newly minted HBO Max next month in an announcement made yesterday.

Also, hour specials from Chris Redd and Moses Storm that had been previously slated for production, along with shorter specials featuring the likes of comedians that you really ought to know already: Naomi Ekperigin, Solomon Georgio, Tommy Johnagin, and Ismo. The dates for when those will happen and subsequently released are TBA. We’re assuming that the nature of the dates will depend on how protocol on TV production with any sort of live audience might change (as that’s not really happening right now) over the next few months.

In any case, you have two new hour comedy specials that are coming in a few weeks from the HBO and Team Coco side of things rather than at Netflix, which is still pretty much on pace for releasing a comedy special every week.

It has been a minute (several minutes actually) since Kyle Ayers’ fantastic show/podcast Never Seen It where comedians reimagine celebrated, beloved movies that they have never seen and then do a table read of their version. 

We still can’t forget how funny the heavy metal take of Mary Poppins by Henry Zebrowski is and we have no doubt something insanely and hysterical unexpected is going to be read live next month at Lyric Hyperion.

Tickets for this latest edition of Never Seen It are on sale now and you can (and very much should) get them here.

Well, NYC’s renowned Las Culturistas podcast, hosted by Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang,  is finally coming to LA to do a round of their beloved I Don’t Think So, Honey! next month.

For the uninitiated, 50 comedians (you can see above that they’ve assembled many of LA’s best) will get to fiercely rant for one minute on anything in culture kicked off by the eponymous phrase “I don’t think so honey”. Arguably, it raises sh*t-talking to an art form. Do yourself a favor and listen to the live episodes that they’ve done in the NYC in the Las Culturistas archives.

Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. We highly recommend to go get them here ASAP.

There are so many things to enjoy about Solomon Georgio first recorded hour of stand-up, Homonégro Superior, fresh off the presses from Comedy Central Records.

There’s Solomon very unique perspective as a gay man who also immigrated to the U.S. from Ethiopia. There’s Solomon’s poise and confidence. There’s also Solomon’s handy distillation of his life, in all facets, into whip smart, sharp, splendid observations and stories. You might have noticed all of this from his half-hour special, which just aired on Comedy Central this week.

In any case, you can (and should) get and enjoy Homonégro Superior here.

That’s right. This show is stand-up comedy completely in complete darkness. If you’ve never experienced such a thing before, it’s pretty trippy, and, for this show, you’ll be in the hands of a great line-up.

Also, we should point out that this show, done in pitch black darkness, has a comedian named Steven King on it (sure, it’s spelled differently than the author, but it’s still a cool, novelty selling point anyway).

You can (and should) get your tickets here.
