Last month, Sally & Brett weren't even sure there would be a show! Shea Stadium has been having some hard times lately. So we're saving Shea the best way we know how! Abject humilation! We will debase, defile, demean ourselves for your amusement--at a price. And all proceeds will go to preserving our home, Shea Stadium. Aside from breaking the law or anything too sexual involving other people, we'll do it. Get to thinking! (Note: I didn't talk to Sally about this yet - Brett)
Also check out this lineup!
Sonia Denis Bowen Yang J.P. McDade Luke Mones Dewey Lovett Yedoye Travis and more to be announced!
And it's $5! Holy moly!

Mornin' USA is America's favorite morning news show, and it's all fun with guest Alex Brightman from Broadway's School of Rock, and music from All Boy/All Girl and a former child star going off the deep end. However, when all of the news in the world is bad news, the show gets a little uneven.
Starring Madonna Refugia, Andrew Tisher, Katie Hartman, Mary Houlihan, Nick Naney, Tim Platt & Brett Wean. Band audio mixed by Jasno Swarez.

There were a lot of really neat write-ups about The Special Without Brett Davis last week leading up to The Special Event. In an act of pure vanity, I have linked them below!
I talked to Eat The Underground about MC Steinberg, my anxieties in general and “Big Baby Gets A Diaper Change.”
I talked to Bedford + Bowery about our Halloween episode, our post-Trump Truth or Myth with Smith episode and my favorite people in comedy.
And Brokelyn asked all of the comics involved in our Special Event show what their “Plan B” was if comedy didn’t work out!
