Here is this week’s Meltdown Poster.  I can not wait to see Jeff Garlin.  I have 20 of these that will be available tonight for a donation of your choosing.  Hope to see y’all there.  

If there was a comedy show poster war, Meltdown would be one of the frontrunners every week.

Episode 44: Kayden Kross & Kyle Kinane

For our one-year anniversary episode, and season 2 finale, we welcome back Kayden Kross and comedian Kyle Kinane. Kayden is engaged in a heated Scrabble game during the show, and she also talks about International Adult Conventions vs. ones in the US, female fans vs. male fans, and of course cats vs. dogs. She also marvels at the guys’ lack of confidence, which is further destroyed for one of the hosts after the final question.

One-Man Show: Louis C.K.’s Unique Experiment in Television Making

The opening sentence is exactly how I imagine every Louis C.K. profile ought to begin.

2 things about this article: 1) This is when you know you made it in comedy. 2) Even though you’ve made it, you’re still working your ass off.

The amazing improvised stand-up show Set List is having another set of tapings at iO West for in the next two weeks.  From the minds of Troy Conrad and Paul Provenza, it’s the only show where you can someone like Greg Proops talk about something like SIDS, moon rape, and “Noah’s Dilemma” all in the same set.

It’s been even written about in Punchline Magazine.
