#pdx comedy

Next Wednesday in Portland. I host this show of great comedians and characters. I'll also debut my new stupid video

PORTLAND: we’re teaming up with our pals at Curious Comedy Theater for a new series that will bring some of the best comics across the country to Portland, and we’re starting with this excellent MIKE LAWRENCE / NATHAN BRANNON show on April 29th. Click here to buy your tickets! Mike Lawrence is a New York City based comedian from South Florida who has found success in both writing and stand up. He is a staff writer on the upcoming season of Inside Amy Schumer and was a writer on the 2015 MTV Movie Awards, the 2015 Webby Awards, and We Have Issues on E! Mike is a recurring guest on the Comedy Central TV show @midnight and his stand up has been featured on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers, TBS’ Conan, FX’s Totally Biased, and John Oliver’s New York Stand-Up Show on Comedy Central. In 2013 His half hour special for Comedy Central aired in conjunction with the release of his album “Sadamantium”, produced by Comedy Central Records. Nathan is a comedian out of Portland, Oregon, who is consistently adding to his list of accomplishment year after year. Just a month into 2016, Nathan recorded his second album with Kill Rock Stars Recording, set to be released mid 201. He also signed with Kill Rock Stars in 2015, was the winner of the Seattle International Comedy Competition in 2014, voted into the Willamette Week's "Portland's Funniest 5" in 2013 while releasing his first comedy album "I Black Out" that same year, and was crowned “Portland’s Funniest Person” in 2012. He has been featured on programs like NPR's Weekend Edition, and Laughs on Fox. Nathan has also opened for national headliners such as Dave Chappelle, Damon Wayans, Maria Bamford, and has photoshopped himself into photos with many more. Currently, Nathan is seeking a funnier way to end this paragraph.

April 27th- Whatever Forever comedy show, Analog Cafe, PDX

In this episode I sit down with Eugene comedian and fellow podcaster Seth Milstein. We talk Rubix Cubes, extreme sports games, GTA, Minecraft, and more. We review Last Action Hero for the SNES and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 for the PS2. Check out Seth's podcast "The Podcast...Cast With Seth Milstein" on iTunes. 

In this episode I sit down with one of my favorite Portland comedians Anthony Lopez! We talk Mario, DLC, Back To The Future, Fallout, Link To The Past, Metroid, What if Christopher Nolan made a Star Fox game?, Pokemon, and more. We review Jurassic Park 2: The Chaos Continues for the SNES and a flash game called Frog Fractions. 

Sorry for the holiday hiatus! We are back with a monster of an episode! My guest this week is the insanely talented Portland comedian Ian Karmel! You may have seen him on Portlandia naked in a bathtub or you may know him from Talkin Ball on the Comcast Sports Network and from his hilarious column in the Portland Mercury. We talk sports games, Far Cry 3, CGI in movies, kale and why it should go fuck itself, Ultima, Warcraft, and more! We review NBA Jam for the SNES, WWF Raw for the SNES, and Portal for the Xbox 360.

This time I am joined by the insanely awesome Shane Torres! We talk portland comedy shows, The Console Wars, I get the date of the NES release wrong (I say Nov. 1985 when its really Oct.1985), blast processing, trading systems, online gaming, sports games and more. We review Clayfighter for the SNES and Left 4 Dead for the Xbox 360 (I say that Left 4 Dead was made on the Halo 2 engine which is a mistake. It was made on the Half Life 2 engine).
