If I succeed in nothing else as the director of this Spank, I can rest in the accomplishment of having finished an efficient tech at 1:11am and having been home by 1:47am.

Alex Adan gets a lot of credit for this one too.

(Complete History of Women’s History by Molly Thomas and me, tomorrow at 6:30pm at UCB paired with Aaron & Brian Present Erik Dies, You’re Stupid and We Hate You. We got: Molly, Natasha, Langan, Moujan, Ellena, Matt and Max.)

Holy Molybdenum! (This was my phone autocorrecting from “Moly”). Let’s all go to the 6:30 and 7:00 Spanks tomorrow, Thursday, Feb. unsure of exactly what date is

I had the honor of being Alden Ford and Winston Noel’s first guest on their podcast, wherein peeps defend guilty pleasure songs. I can be found in the above link defending Sting’s “Desert Rose” in a podcast in no way affiliated with Jaguar or Tantric sex.

Guys, let’s all talk about this list. For starters, imagine a conversation between 1989 Fred Savage and 1989 Hall and 1989 Oates.

Did they double book 1988? Also nothing says Mardi Gras like SCHWIMMER.

At least Schwimmer was in peak Friend-zone in 1997. Nothing could be sadder than the first Mardi Gras after 9/11, when Jason Alexander helmed the ship 4 years after Seinfeld went off the air.

Hey everybody! I’m having a slow day at my TV writing job that I got thanks largely to the training and experience and connections I got at the UCB Theatre in New York (AND ALSO MY OWN TALENT!! LET’S NOT FORGET HOW TALENTED I AM! I BUILT THIS!). So… as a former UCBTNY performer and…

A big ol’ yes to everything Anthony said here. The UCB Theatre changed my life and any amount of success I have had so far in the comedy world is due in large part to that theatre. 

Bye bye.

What these guys said. Also, Gervais’ speech at the end of Extras.

On the second Tuesday of every month at UCB East, two fledgling comedians talk origins with professional creators, and hopefully answer their parents’ question, “What are you doing?” This is Beginnings: Live!

image Holy mackerel! This may very well be our most fun live show yet! On January 8th, we were joined by Erika Forster and Annie Hart from one of our favorite bands Au Revoir Simone, one of our favorite performers Josh Patten (performer at UCB and a writer on SNL Weekend Update), and one of our favorite artists Molly Crabapple (the founder of Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School). We laughed, we loved, we heard about their earliest creative memories, and we even did a little demo work for a PR firm that paid us big buck$ to poll our audience!

Subscribe on iTunes and follow Andy and Mark on Twitter! See us live in February at UCB East! (probably!)
