Chicagoans Kyle Kinane and Brendan McGowan Attempt...
thecomedybureau:
The Why Would You Eat That? by Ron Babcock and Michael Truly is one of the funnest and funniest web series as of late. Look no further for proof than this latest episode where a Chicago rite of passage, supposedly, in the spirit known as ‘Malort’ is drank after grabbing fake cash from a wind machine/fan in a challenge between very funny comedians Kyle Kinane and Brendan...

Breaking! This month I’m going on a tour throughout the Midwest with Funny or Die and Old Milwaukee, and I’m bringing my buddy Johnny Pemberton with me!

“The most important thing to remember about drunks is that drunks are far more intelligent than non-drunks. They spend a lot of time talking in pubs, unlike workaholics who concentrate on their careers and ambitions, who never develop their higher spiritual values, who never explore the insides of their head like a drunk does.”

Here's First Teaser for Grawlix's Those Who Can't...
thecomedybureau:
Next week, specifically on April 18th, The Grawlix’s Amazon Studios web series, Those Who Can’t, will finally premiere. Seems from this first teaser as Adam Cayton-Holland, Ben Roy, and Andrew Orvedahl play teachers in Colorado, though they’re still pretty much themselves from their previous roles as self-absorbed, conniving comedians.
Basically, we’re really excited for next...

By ROGER EBERT
I will pass away sooner than most people who read this, but that doesn’t shake my sense of wonder and joy
Don’t have much to say in the way of his movie reviews, but as far as looking back at life and offering advice on how to do it best, I give Roger Ebert two thumbs way up.

The internet has turned the entirety of the industrialized world into something surprisingly similar to the DIY punk scene. For those who remember a world before the internet became a household utility, you might recall a time when people found out about bands almost entirely through word of…
John Vargas: Pops. →
johnvargas:
Pops was a mechanic. He understood the workings of most things metallic. Especially cars. By most peoples’ accounts, he was a pretty great mechanic, though he never bragged about his work. He never talked about his work. In fact he never talked about anything. Not to me, not to any of my…

One of the comedians who helped me at the beginning was a fellow Chicagoan named Jimmy Pardo. Here he is in a really funny piece from Conan, where he also works as the warm up comic for every episode they shoot. http://teamcoco.com/content/andy-brings-out-his-own-sidekick

There’s a guy in my neighborhood who dresses like Jesus Christ. He walks around Fountain, in Hollywood, just doin’ his thing - petting dogs and saying “hi” to everyone. Jesus My Neighbor, and most of the people in L.A., are pretty great. I’m super lucky to know a lot of smart, kind, weird and…

Hey.
Lots of people in every major city are charging money to take a standup comedy class. While I know comedians who have benefitted from such classes, the majority consensus among fellow comedians are that these are of dubious value and, even if they help with some fundamentals or with…

The Grawlix (Adam Cayton-Holland, Ben Roy, Andrew Orvedahl) serves up another hilarious video where they flip the Good Cop/Bad Cop archetype. Well, flip half of it anyway and add thick Boston accents on top of it all.
