Public School Stories is one of the best storytelling shows in LA and also has, as you can clearly see, some of the prettiest flyers we’ve seen.
This latest edition has a really damn good line-up (featuring folks from MST3K, You’re The Worst, and Progressive Insurance, and more) as you can additionally see, that you shouldn’t miss out on.
NOTE: show is on October 4th, 2017 9PM.
The rest of our listings for comedy shows, events, open mics, maps, and more can be found at www.thecomedybureau.com.

Baked is on Sat. Feb. 27th at 10PM at The Hollywood Improv and tickets are $15 w/2 item min.
Since time immemorial, comedians have often lived together in what many would considered cramped, messy, and raucous living situations. Comedians, for the most part, think it’s just fine.
In this latest golden era of comedy, there’s a whole new excitement brewing in the underground and, with the aid of the Internet, it’s not quite as underground (i.e. no one has ever heard of it) as it used to be.
Lance Bangs explores this subculture that’s bridging its way to the big time, though, on its own terms, in his Viceland series Flophouse. Specifically, he goes through these comedian ‘flophouses’ and then sees them all put on a live show on a rooftop, in a back yard, in a garage, etc.
Here’s a trailer for Flophouse in case you’re curious as to what this all looks like and haven’t gotten the luck to go to a house comedy show.
By the way, featured in the trailer are:
Kate Willett, Clare O’Kane, Solomon Georgio, Amy Miller, Brent Weinbach, Brandon Wardell, Eric Dadourian, Dave Stone, Maria Bamford, James Adomian, Sean Patton, James Austin Johnson, David Gborie, Steve Agee, and much more.
Look for Flophouse to come to Vice’s new Viceland on Feb. 29th.
Keep in mind that this is all based off a joke on how Steve Agee said goodbye at a party once.
There has been no production of the script for Steve Agee’s Weekend Dracula, which tells the tale of how Steve Agee is a Dracula on the weekends and the weekends only. Yet, Steve Agee has already penned Steve Agee’s Weekend Dracula II.
Again, this all stems from a joke between Steve, Paul F. Tompkins, and Mark McConville and might very well turn into an entire series or feature length script of brilliantly silly comedy if Steve keeps it up.
Read Steve Agee’s Weekend Dracula II here.
Though it has yet to be fleshed out into full feature length script, we’d absolutely be into reading the whole thing.
As if the idea of comedian Steve Agee being a Dracula on the weekend wasn’t ridiculous and amazing enough on its own, Agee left a party with an overly formal sounding goodbye which left some friends, notably Ben Acker and Ben Blacker of Thrilling Adventure Hour fame, and Mark McConville from Superego to suggest that Steve write a Steve Agee’s Weekend Dracula.
Read it here.
Given the positive response already, we wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a short film, sketch, web video, etc. soon that brings these words to life.
During his stop on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, Adam Scott wanted to share the joy he’s gotten from his new dog so much that he brought his dog onto the show.
Apparently, his dog has many features that resemble the comedian and actor Steve Agee, which undoubtedly contributes to why Adam loves his new dog.
Meet the pooch as he walks on to Kimmel’s set here.
If you’ve both sincerely wondered what it would be like if high fives never existed and if sneezing would be racist, then quickly laughed it off because you were probably high, do yourself a favor and watch the latest episodes of Rich Fulcher’s Comedy Central web series Questionable Science.
Even if you don’t ponder such questions, it’s pretty damn funny to watch Fulcher ponder high five alternatives and actually entertaining racist sneezing as a thing. with a team including Jennie Pierson, Steve Agee, Pat Regan, Myke Wright, and more.
Also, be sure to check the credits. You won’t regret it.
The release of Megan Amram’s science “textbook”, Science… For Her!, is less than a month away at Nov. 4th, so Amram enlisted the help of Nick Offerman, Steve Agee, and Rich Fulcher, director Payman Benz, and a parody of Olivia Newton John’s Let’s Get Physical to promote the book.
The result? It’s Let’s Get Physics Y’all with a perfect exhibition of all the, shall we say, manliness of Offerman/Agee/Fulcher on display. Pre-order Science… For Her!, as you know you’ll want to after watching, here.
A couple of months ago, we caught wind of the awesome podcast collective known as Feral Audio recording a live album featuring performances from the various hosts of their shows.
Today, we’re more than happy to not only find that the album Feral Audio LIVE has come out, but that it’s also available as a special so you can watch what went down at Nerdmelt several weeks ago.
So, don’t waste any more time reading this and get to listening and/or watching Feral Audio LIVE that indeed brings Dan Harmon, Steve Agee, Little Esther/Esther Povitsky, Duncan Trussell, Brody Stevens, John Roy, and more all together.
With the one and only James Adomian playing Chris Matthews, a franchised version of MSNBC’s Hardball in Canada would most certainly have an Ann Coulter played by Drew Droege, a Tegan and Sara played by Rhea Buthcer and Cameron Esposito, a Rob Ford played by Steve Agee, and a William Shatner played by Joe Roche.
See what could be very well be the future of Hardball on Funny or Die here.
To our knowledge, no podcast network has gone to record a live album of its roster of podcasts.
That’s all changing next month as Feral Audio is taking Dan Harmon, Steve Agee, Johnny Pemberton, John Roy, Erin McGathy, Brody Stevens, Matt Dwyer, Little Esther Povitsky, Melissa Stephens, Duncan Trussell, and more to the Nerdmelt Showroom to do exactly that.
Podcast history is going to be made on August 5th 9PM and you should get your tickets now.

NBC’s Craig Robinson Comedy Pilot Still Has a Chance
NBC doesn’t want to give up on Craig Robinson’s pilot just yet as the entire cast got their options extended at the network.
We’re intrigued to see what happens with that project as Steve Little, Steve Agee, and Kumail Nanjiani are part of this cast.
Steve Agee To Be Diablo Cody’s Side Kick and Writer for Talk Show Pilot at TBS
TBS has been picking a lot of interesting projects to develop as of late and Diablo Cody’s talk show pilot just got a whole lot more intriguing with Steve Agee signing on as a sidekick. If there’s anyone that could make a Vine short film work on TV, it’d be Agee.
In this latest CC:Studios web series, the very funny Steve Agee & Brandon Johnson play an over the hill and desperate sketch duo also by the names of Steve and Brandon finagling their ways to a Comedy Central show. Thus, the name of the show, Steve & Brandon Think They Sold a Show.
All 5 episodes are now online and we suggest that you watch them as it’s funny with so many funny people in it. In addition to Agee and Johnson, there are JC Coccoli, Michael Busch, and the direction of Peter Atencio (director for Key & Peele).
Steve Agee, Kumail Nanjiani, and Steve Little Joining Craig Robinson’s NBC Pilot

14) Do people know how to genuinely laugh anymore? Can you be the only person laughing and not be embarrassed? I’m starting to suspect that people can’t do either of these things or maybe I just like laughing at suicide jokes and people inappropriately (or appropriately depending on how you look at it) clapping at it.
