Normally, the stories featured on Comedy Central’s This Is Not Happening aren’t usually described as “sweet”, however Chris Garcia’s story of trying to win his girl back via boxing does definitely have all sorts of sweet throughout.
Don’t worry, there’s plenty of cursing and violence too (otherwise, it really wouldn’t be a TINH story, would it?)
Give it a watch and enjoy it here.
The stories of comedian/actor Byron Bowers are something to be reckoned with in the best, most all-encompassing way possible.
His story featured on Comedy Central’s This Is Not Happening is proof positive of this as well as what we said in the headline.
Watch and revel in it here.
This President’s Day, let’s remember how the current POTUS used to host an insane, absurd reality competition show via this tale from Tom Green.
We thought, as it is Valentine’s Day, that it would only be appropriate to share this fantastic story from Comedy Central’s This Is Not Happening of how love twisted Louiz Katz inside out and produced a more hardened, embittered soul after it spat him out.
In a way, this story just shows how powerful love is.
Please enjoy it here.
As Valentine’s Day looms in the coming hours, we thought it’d be kind of perfect to watch Krystyna Hutchinson’s fantastic story from this latest season of This Is Not Happening.
It’s a story of overcoming the odds to not only find true love, but come to peace with your own insecurities and anxities. Also, the co-creator of Guys We F****d’s tale is pretty NSFW.
Enjoy it here.
Roy Wood Jr. has taken over hosting duties from Ari Shaffir for the fourth season of Comedy Central’s storytelling series This Is Not Happening.
Per usual, there are very insane stories, several of which probably benefit from certain statutes of limitations being over, and crazy looking interstitials inspired by the title of the show.
By the way, Roy looks pretty damn slick in his get up, doesn’t he?
Here’s the trailer.
This Is Not Happening season 4 premieres Friday, Feb. 2nd at Midnight on Comedy Central.
Comedy Central’s This Is Not Happening does capture some of the crazier things that happen in a comedian’s life. Though all comedians have heckling stories, few do involve getting into an actual full on fight during the show.
Greg Fitzsimmons shares one of those rarer stories here.

The rest of our listings for comedy shows, events, open mics, and maps can be found at www.thecomedybureau.com.
For us, any time Rory Scovel has a mic in his hand and is on stage is required viewing.
This traumatic story from his youth about his very first sharting incident does not disappoint. It may be about ‘unintentional bodily evacuations’, but Rory makes this story kind of beautiful.
Please watch and enjoy it here.
For our money, we can’t think of a better way to close shop on Valentine’s Day this year than Julian McCullough’s story about one jaw-dropping tattoo that he got because of a girl that was kind of into him.
Here’s the story on the latest This Is Not Happening.
Of the dozens of stories that have been shared on Comedy Central’s This Is Not Happening, this is one of the more insane and graphic ones.
Fortunately, Sofiya Alexandra weaves the story of having to act as a Russian translator for her senile grandfather during an emergency surgery that you probably have never even imagined in such a way that makes it a stand out amongst the TINH canon.
The tales of Dan St. Germain are kind of perfect for Comedy Central’s storytelling series This Is Not Happening.
This particular story comes from a darker time in Dan’s life when he was a janitor and managed to go overboard on getting wasted at a jam band festival.
Dave Ross is hilarious and this is a hilarious acid tripping story that just found it’s way to Comedy Central’s storytelling series This Is Not Happening.
We don’t need to explain any further (i.e. comedians on acid usually make for a great story later and that’s that). So, just watch and enjoy.
Make sure to stay up to 12:30AM tonight.
Comedy Central’s storytelling show, This Is Not Happening, continues to be one of the shows that seems to transitioned the best from Comedy Central’s own digital platform to a linear TV series.
Not only is it premiering its 3rd season tonight at 12:30AM tonight on Comedy Central, but the network has just announced that it has ordered a fourth season.
Now you have two seasons of TINH to look forward to starting tonight.
The latest round of This Is Not Happening kicks off with a crazy story from Doug Stanhope/great sales pitch for his book Digging Up Mother: A Love Story.
As you might suspect, recovering from a break-up for Stanhope doesn’t go like it does for the rest of us.
This season of the hit Comedy Central storytelling series, This Is Not Happening with host Ari Shaffir, is going to bring you all sorts of f’d up stories from Doug Stanhope, Maria Bamford, Dave Ross, Brian Regan, Julian McCullough, Bonnie McFarlane, Ali Saddiq, Bert Kreischer with his shirt off, and way more.
Watch the trailer for season 3 to get a taste of what’s to come as well as how much great screaming is involved in many of these stories.
The new season kicks off on Thursday, October 13th on Comedy Central.
Sean Patton is one of the best storytellers comedy has.
His latest story on This Is Not Happening that completely hinged on the niche spice known as cumin is just more proof of that statement.
Accomplished and celebrated comedian Moshe Kasher had a wild childhood that lead to drugs, rampant disregard for the life, mental hopsitals, rehab, and being part of a gang that called themselves the Pure Adrenaline Gangsters.
For This Is Not Happening, he shares a great story, that really paints will the emotional colors, of being a Pure Adrenaline Gangster.
Oh yeah, his book that he mentions, Kasher in the Rye, is still available for purchase.
Kyle Kinane has made a name for himself by being able to weave the threads of despair exquisitely into wonderful multi-faceted stories and observations that are as funny as they can possibly be.
This latest story about some of the saddest sex Kyle has ever had on This Is Not Happening is a great example of that.
One of the stories that most lives up to the spirit of the show’s title This Is Not Happening is a story from the host himself.
We’ll let Ari Shaffir take it from here.
Goodfellas will forever be one of the stand out films of 1990 and in the crime/mobster genre of cinema.
Still, that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t learn how to deal with people based on this violent movie.
Joe DeRosa highlights why that might be in this great story from This Is Not Happening.
For This Is Not Happening, Nicole Byer has a whole arsenal of drinking stories that paint a nice tapestry of what exactly happens when she indulges in a “bit” of drinking.
Having a pregnancy scare at Burning Man is no simple pregnancy scare as you might imagine.
Kate Willett got to live the real thing and you can rest assured that she went on quite the trip to avoid getting pregnant at the playa.
Watch her tell the story on the latest This Is Not Happening.

Ari Shaffir will host, hopefully in a more outlandish 3 piece suit, stories from all of the above and more on May 22nd-25th at This Is Not Happening’s home, Cheetah’s in Los Feliz.
You can (and should) reserve your tickets for the tapings for free right here.
Sean Patton is always a highlight of the whole This Is Not Happening series.
This story on how he took intentionally mispronouncing the name of spice too far is further proof of that claim.
