For Some Reason, Scientists Are Still Trying to Build a Robot That Can Do Stand Up
For Some Reason, Scientists Are Still Trying to Build a Robot That Can Do Stand Up
Apparently, robots that perform micro surgery, manufacturing, and offer challenges to chess grandmasters have been perfected since robotics developers have kept on trying to come up with a reliable stand up comedian robot.
Little do they know that broken animatronic robots (a closer approximation to the human condition, perhaps?) are way funnier that a robot programmed to tell jokes.
Despite Being Unnecessarily Abused While Performing, Moshe Kasher and Nick Thune Shine in This Web Series
Made Man’s latest comedy web series Laugh Trek pits Moshe Kasher and Nick Thune in various stand up competitions that are sort of needlessly difficult and torturous like doing a set over loud electronic music or in front a retirement home crowd.

Cameron Esposito Makes Great Late Night Stand Up Debut in Front of Jay Leno and Craig Ferguson
Amongst the huddles of comedians, there are comparatively very few, especially nowadays, who make it to doing a set on a late night talk show. Even rarer is doing a great set, prompting the host to call them over to the couch and chat.
Much more rare, probably because it has never happened, is that when a comedian is called over to the couch by Craig Ferguson with Jay Leno sitting beside him after they interjected, admittedly like Statler and Waldorf, during a set that was going pretty great, then hear Leno say, “White men are on their way out! Lesbians rule!”
Well, that’s exactly what happened to the wonderful Cameron Esposito last night when making her late night debut on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and it was pretty damn hilarious and amazing.
