Often, the green room of a live comedy show is one of the best places to be, especially if you want that fly on the wall experience of comedians that are off-stage, but still sharp whilst riffing with their contemporaries.

Being stuck in quarantine, the idea of gathering is still a bit away from happening (even with just comedians). Yet, you can still get a bit of the green room experience this weekly starting this Thursday 4/30 with the In The Green Room live-stream.

Set to hang back in that proverbial/virtual green room is many of Avail Comedy‘s very best including

Comedians Include*
Chris Fairbanks
Gareth Reynolds
Greg Barris
James Fritz
Maggie Maye
Matt McCarthy
Megan Koester
Nick Flanagan
Paul Danke
Phoebe Bottoms
Ramin Nazer
Ryan Singer
Sara June

* based on quarantine availability

Rather than having the news on all day, it’d be much, much better to just hang with comedians hanging with other comedians. Tune in at youtube.com/availcomedy at 8PM PT/11PM

One of the most bonkers comedy shows around, Late Late Breakfast, is going live on a live-stream! For the uninitiated, Late Late Breakfast issued random challenges and games for comedians to do while trying to do their act including having to make as many burgers as possible, fighting with paper airplanes, having to do a plethora of impressions, and more. Personally, we’re excited to see how they will pull off their crazy format via Zoom/Twitch.

As always, Tyler Jackson and Danny Maupin will preside as hosts of the controlled chaos and they’ve wrangled quite the line-up from around the country including:

Shane Torres
Maggie Maye
Casey James Salengo
Chloe Radcliffe
Ian Aber
Dante Powell
Sean Smith
AND MORE!!

Tune in and witness the madcap delights of Late Late Breakfast on Sat. Apr. 18th at 1PM PT/4PM ET at Holdthephone.tv

Reparations for Slavery Haven’t Happened, But Maybe You Can Support a Comedy Short “16,000 Dollars” About What Reparations Might Actually Look Like

As Juneteenth today marks the end of slavery in the U.S. (with its specific end in Texas), it’s as good of a time as ever to highlight the issue of reparations.

Specifically, you can help crowdfund a short film featuring many of LA comedy’s best (Brodie Reed, David Gborie, Maggie Maye, Jermaine Fowler, Francesca Fiorentini, Ellington Wells, Symone Baptiste) imagining a comedic reality where reparations for slavery actually happened in the present day.

Many politicians still, to this day, have trouble talking about reparations, so who knows what will it actually happening. At the very least, you can back this film 16,000 Dollars that will probably further the conversation as well as offer a chance for a really stellar cast and crew to shine.

Find out more about 16,000 Dollars and back it here.

Judge Aaron Persky is the judge who infamously handled the Brock Turner rape case.

This show, happening tomorrow at El Cid in Silverlake, is an awesome comedy benefit to raise funds to get him on the ballot in order to get him recalled (as opposed to him just getting running opposed for several more years).

Along with a great show featuring the comedy stylings of Ever Mainard, Maggie Maye, Janine Brito, Mara Wilson, and more, there will be a raffle prizes and F*ck Rape Culture merch.

You can get (and should) get your tickets here.
