We’re still smiling about the new web series Please Understand Me from Steve Feinartz and Ahamed Weinberg, EP’d by Sarah Silverman that was released this week on Facebook Watch.

Seriously, it’s fantastic.

Anyhow, if you’re in LA and don’t want to wait in the coming weeks for new episodes, you can go to a live screening of the whole series (including episodes for the pilot presentation) at the Lyric Hyperion in Silverlake (2106 Hyperion Ave., Los Angeles, CA) on Saturday, June 9th at 8PM. We were lucky enough to go to the premiere screening and it’s such a damn good time watching it in a crowd.

Tickets are $10 and you really ought to get them here.

The idea of showing comedians in therapy gets taken to the next level with Please Understand Me from the brilliant duo of Ahamed Weinberg and Steven Feinartz.

In this web series, fictional stories are made up for pairs of comedians who sit down with actual therapists, accented with colorful interstitial flashbacks. Of course, the stories themselves are perfectly ridiculous and played to perfection by a great cast, which includes many of our favorite comedy folks such as Rory Scovel, Natalie Palamides, Mo Collins, Fred Melamed, Steph Tolev, Ismael Loutfi, Ahamed, Juzo Yoshida, Chad Damiani, Phil Burgers, and Punkie Johnson.

Go enjoy Please Understand Me’s first two episodes right now on Facebook Watch and check back weekly for new episodes.

Revered punk label Fat Wreck Chords is throwing a comedy show, their first one in fact, this Wednesday night. Appropriately called Fat Calm Eddie, the show will go down at The Lost Room in Echo Park (1538 W. Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA) and really does feature some of the funniest people that LA has to offer.

It doesn’t get much more Echo Park, and we mean that in the best way possible, than this.
