Following yesterday’s latest news, it’s kind of hard to look forward to anything while still in the daze of what was one of the darkest days of a long period of dark days in our current history.

Yet, it would seem a comedy show about the darker facts about every U.S. president might be the perfect thing to come about right now. Kate Villa and Alexandria Iona’s Every President Ever: Together Again: INAUGURATED WITH A VENGEANCE is exactly that show. They will feature 46 different comedians presenting things that you might not know about (since, like Andrew Jackson’s presidency, to the victor goes the spoils, right?). Even if you’re suspicious enough of the government that you’ve looked some dirt on POTUS of years past, this still ought to be a rollicking good, satirical time.

This virtual character show is being presented by the lovely folks at Littlefield NYC and is set for right before Joe Biden’s Inauguration as the 46th President of the United States on Tues. Jan. 19th at 5PM PT/8PM ET. Tickets are available for $5 suggested donation and you can and should go get them here.

Many comedy livestreams have come and gone in 2020. The same goes for comedians attempting to cook during a livestream for humorous effect. Yet, one of the standout shows in this arena that have stood the test of COVID-19 time (i.e. what’s time anymore?) is Sydnee Washington’s Syd Can Cook, which is half comedy green room hang/half cooking show/whole “a real good time” that gets us through a bit more of this year.

For the holidays, Sydnee is doing a very special marathon version of Syd Can Cook on Dec. 20th at 4PM PT/7PM ET at @justsydbw on Instagram. You know that she’ll be going strong on IG Live w/Karolena Theresa through her holiday feast no matter what folks are putting up in the thread and there will be a grand virtual procession of special guests the whole way through.

Per Sydnee herself, “PLEASE SUGGEST WHAT YALL WANT TO SEE US MESS UP, I MEAN COOK” @justsydbw.

Comedy Quarantine has been dutifully and faithfully delivering stand-up comedy via Instagram Live (in a pretty slick way, we might add) for almost every week of lockdown/quarantine/this damn pandemic. The team of Barbara Gray, Teresa Lee, Dominque Gelin, and Sam Varela have connected the best comedians from around the country and the world to stay connected to everyone else and work on material within their own home or wherever they happen to be at the time (Teresa went live from a protest in DTLA) longer than any other comedy live-stream that we have known about this year.

On top of that, they have been taking donations to not only support the comedians on their line-up, but have raised plenty of $$$ for great organizations such as Ground Game LA or The Okra Project.

So, this week will be their last week and, as they have done throughout the duration of the pandemic, they’ve got stacked line-ups that are very, very much tuning into on IG Live for (as you can see above).

If you weren’t already checking them out, please check @ComedyQuarantine out for their final shows this Wed., Thurs., and Fri. at 7PM PT/10PM ET.

The election is well past us now and Biden is going to be 46th POTUS, which means Trump won’t thankfully be President anymore. In LA, a lot of progressive measures/candidates got voted in. Yet, as you might very well know, there is plenty of more organizing, strategizing, mobilizing that has to be done to actually affect real change.

Ground Game LA has been a great mutual aid LA org that will be crucial going forward in instituting and sustaining said change. Thus, they’re putting on a virtual Winter Fundraiser that will not only include appearances by newly elected LA councilwoman Nithya Raman, but a stacked row of LA comedy favorites such as D’arcy Carden, Ira Madison, Quinta Brunson, Adam Conover, Mal Blum, Nicole Byer, and Rhea Butcher.

Some of the best comedy live-streams have been benefit fundraisers, especially when Nithya has been involved, and this Ground Game LA Winter Fundraiser should be no different. The live-stream is set for Dec. 10th at 7PM PT/10PM ET and donations will be accepted for access (you can even stream for free if you’d like).

With the days wearing on and on in quarantine, the prospect of keeping things chill become harder and harder (even if you’re healthy, full stocked, and financially secure).

Thus, one might want to look to the chill, laid-back, centered energy of Creeper, creator of Cholofit, for some guidance to kickback and take in some good vibes.

Fortunately, Creeper (Frankie Quinones) along with a whole host of friends (other delightful Quinones characters) are putting on a whole “Quarantine Kickback” that will be the perfect sort of hang (and comedy show) for this year’s Cinco De Mayo.

Creeper’s Quarantine Kickback is set for this Tues. May 5th at 7PM PT/10PM ET and tickets are $5 GA and $20 VIP. Go get more details and definitely get your tickets here.
