Chris Garcia Tells His Story of Trying Boxing to Win a Girl Back

March 28, 2018
Uncategorized
boxing, comedy central, roy wood jr, storytelling, this is not happening, tinh

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
