I never told you guys about this, did I? This was probably the most fun I’ve ever had on a podcast episode, too, so shame on me for that. When I was in Pensacola for work before Thanksgiving, I hit up my good friend Norm (who, incidentally, will be featuring for me and Sean Simoneau … Continue reading

Just… come to Scruffy City Hall Tonight
I don’t have much time to write and put a bunch of fancy links and images here, but I just wanted to document how tonight, Scruffy City Hall will turn into a goddamned comedic playground for adults around 7:30pm. At 8pm, Matt Chadourne, Shane Rhyne, Victor Agreda and I will be doing a live-riff on … Continue reading
Where to See Me at Scruffy City Comedy Festival #SCCF2015
Where can you find me at the 2nd Annual Scruffy City Comedy festival this weekend? Never thought you’d ask. You’ll find me all over the place, really, but I’m performing on the following three shows plus a couple extraneous events. Also, I’ve got extremely limited time to write this out, so excuse the crudity of … Continue reading
Vs. The World (Dustin Meadows)
Hey. Dustin Meadows! Dustin likes pop-punk and movies more than your parents probably love you, and he’s one of my best friends in comedy. He’s been crushing it in his home state of Ohio (which Chixdiggit sang about), and he also probably hates basketball (much like Chixdiggit). ‘The Great Gatsby’ is just ‘Scarface’ for white … Continue reading
A New Face for a Special Place (Travis Irvine)
So, I’ve got a friend named Travis. He’s a good dude. We met each other while performing all over DC over the span of 2008, a year which he spent working mostly for Matthew Lesko (who if you were lucky, you’d see sitting in his question-mark suit on his laptop at Tryst Coffee on occasion). … Continue reading
THOR!!! the Musical (Evan Valentine)
Here’s a brief history for you all, explaining what the hell it is you just watched (or the still with the big YouTube play button in the middle of it you’re seeing). In 2007, The Champions recorded this as an audio play in Joe Gonzales’ basement somewhere in Montgomery County, MD. The Champions staged “THOR!!!” … Continue reading
My Shows and Others this Week in Knoxville (10/26 – 10/31)
I don’t have time to write much, and for the reason I don’t have much time to write, I am a crazy person for committing to three of these things this week. You, YES YOU, can see quality comedy for (ostensibly, but please donate a couple bucks if you can) free in Knoxville this week! … Continue reading
It’s [Comedy] Time in Tennessee [Knoxville]!
Alright, just in the interest of putting yet another net out there to capture the fucking surge of comedic events taking place in/around Knoxville over the next few weeks, specifically the last week of September, I’m… putting out a net of things that I support and if you have the time, then I believe you … Continue reading
QED, Comedy Laboratory Turns One
…and I can’t imagine my comedy-life without it. I’ve said it so many times, but QED is the most fun I’ve ever had in ten years doing stand-up comedy. This coming Monday’s show, “RESET” marks the one-year anniversary, and I’m just as surprised as anybody that the show is where it is today. I mean … Continue reading
A Post about Posting in Knoxville
I’ve gone on record that Knoxville is a particularly difficult place in which to promote independently produced entertainment. This may be not necessarily better or worse than many smaller cities with relatively decentralized populations, but Knoxville’s where I live and try to support the local arts as best I can, so I’m calling the situation … Continue reading
