Does anybody have any funny audio specials they can recommend? I'm heading on a long road trip and good stand up can make it fly by. I like comedians like Louis CK, Bill Burr, and sometimes Kevin Hart.

Grab some Comedy Bang Bang Podcasts. They're pretty fun to listen to.

Kumail Nanjian's album Beta Male is freaking awesome.

I think John Mullaney is hilarious. He has his own sitcom coming out this fall. Hope its funny. He has a lot of sitcom writing experience so there is hope.

I recently discovered Jon Mulaney. Simply amazing. His entire set is so tight, like amazingly so.


Also going to see Mike MacDonald tonight. I nearly sh*t when I saw not only was he coming here, but was healthy enough to tour.

Metzger is very funny. Great writer too. I think he was/is head writer on Amy Schumer's show.

I saw Dylan Mandlsohn, Patrick Haye, and Graham Kay last Friday.

Excellent comedians, super nice and friendly guys too. Check them out if you get a chance.

I was finally able to see Brian Regan last week. He was very funny. Worked on some new stuff and flat out told us after a few jokes bombed that they were new and he was still figuring them out. When he did the "hits" the energy really climbed. He saved "The Big Yellow One is the Sun" and "Butterfly Pavilion" until the encore. He's up there with the best touring comics in the world right now in my opinion.

Next up for me will be Jim Jeffries.

Just wanted to plug a couple of shows next week.

Jay Mohr is in town at the Laugh Shop on the 19th. Jay is one of my favourites. His Walken impression is worth the price of admission alone.

On the same night Nikki Glaser is at Yuk Yuk's. She is hilarious. The day after that, Amy Schumer is in town, I'll be seeing Amy in Edmonton while I'm there on the 18th.

These are all big acts and I urge people to go see them. Support the local clubs and theatres. Calgary is lucky to draw big name comedians like this. It wasn't always the case.

Grabbed some tickets for Nikki Glaser, really excited to see her again. She is hilarious.

I had no idea Amy Schumer was in town though, that's awesome! How is the Grey Eagle Casino for comedy shows?

Mark Wahlberg (Daniel Van Kirk) is back to entertain and inform the fine folks at the UCB-Sunset Theatre in Los Angeles with his very famous friends Harvey Keitel (Jay Mohr), Nicolas Cage (Kenny Stevenson), Manny Pacquiao (Marques Ray), and Tony Sam. They’ll discuss the Oscars, how to stop ISIS, the new version of Tinder, and many more important things.

The Sklar Brothers are doing a pilot for Comedy Central. It will be like The Daily Show, but for sports.

Damn, would love to see Amy Schumer, and Jay Mohr but already going to see a band that weekend. Bit steep for tickets, can't afford to go to everything. $69.83 for Amy and $47.20 for Jay Mohr.

Recently caught Hannibal Buress. He was fantastic. Really great - killer delivery and had a nice subtle social commentary running throughout his jokes. He is gonna be a star.

Saw Adam Devine last week. He was nuts. I think I prefer his scripted stuff like 'Workaholics' to his stand-up but he was definitely worth it. The place was packed and people were partying hard. I guess he brings that out in people.

I really like his stand up but I think the sitcom is pretty mediocre.


His character on Kroll Show kills me every time
