Hello faithful readers!

In exciting but mysterious good news: Variety Pack is ramping up, baby!! Not JUST for Vol. 3 (July 9-12), but also for some secret new things. (I said it would be mysterious.)

That means this newsletter is now going to come at you every other week instead of every week. No, stop stop stop, don’t cry!!

As an aforementioned faithful reader of this newsletter, you’ll be the first to know when these secret new things get announced, so stick around and stay perched on the edge of your seat for more.

In the meantime, go see some live comedy!!

Your towncrier,

Chaz

Our Lady of Ladies, Lady, will be at Tattooed Mom TONIGHT at 8:00p (doors at 7:00p) as part of the Diapason queer variety show! If you need a little divine intervention in your disappointingly mortal life, get on over there.

Tattooed Momedy returns on Tuesday, March 31 at (you guessed it), Tattooed Mom! A stacked lineup hosted by Joe Bell and Tan Hoang, this installment of the beloved mic is headlined by Mic Nguyen, co-host of the Asian Not Asian Podcast. Non-Asians encouraged to attend!

TEXT THE GROUP CHAT! The Best Friends Variety Hour with Kris & Alli is back in town after their Florida tour! Two nights only at ComedySportz, make your rezzies NOW (for both the show and the girls’ night (non-gendered) before/after)!

Didn’t watch it last week? Watch it this week! What else are you doing??

You know him from Cartoon Club and Tattooed Momedy (see above), but did you know Joe Bell is also a part of comedy video juggernaut group Scrote AND he has a pilot you should watch immediately? Here’s the Scrote video, Kelly’s Boyfriend to whet your whistle, and once the whistle is fully whut, go give them a follow at @scrotevideo on YouTube and Insta. Want to know more about this pilot I mentioned oh-so-casually? Check it out @biggcountyrestorations to stay up to date on your favorite new show you haven’t watched yet!
