If your interest is peaked by Netflix’s recent series order for Historical Roast (or you’re already a fan), then you might want to go to the very next edition of Historical Roast at The Comedy Store Belly Room where legendary pro wrestler Andre the Giant will be the target/guest of honor to see it up close all for yourself.

Tickets are $5 (plus a 2 drink minimum) and you can (and should) go get them here.

Well, it looks like Comedy Central isn’t the only place you’ll be able to find comedy roasts anymore.

Historical Roast (and Fictional Roast), for a few years now, have been putting the feet of anything from WWII to Shakespeare to Disney Princesses to the fire for fun on stages across LA in appropriate costumes (including Nerdmelt, The Comedy Store, and Dynasty Typewriter). 

Given the success of Roast Battle, we thought it only a matter of time before this show created by Eddie Furth, Ryan Pigg, and Samee Junio got picked up somewhere, which just happened to be Netflix.

Similar to the way that Roastmaster General Jeff Ross brought Roast Battle to the forefront, Ross will have his stamp on the six episodes ordered for Historical Roasts. 

In the spirit of this episode's word, our wonderful guest, Jon Zucker and Julian cover many topics in the first half. It is also Jon's second time guesting which means we get to welcome him to the Second-Timer Club and it is ALSO Word With Friend's 3rd birthday!!!

Celebrate with us by grabbing yourself some loose sushi (Producer Samee Note: there's chewing in this episode) and learn FACTOTUM with Julian and Jon.

We're back from being gone from being back! Our sadboy guest this week is two-timer, Edgar Momplaisir! Julian and Edgar dissect a DJ Khaled track, Julian spoils Alpha Dog, and Edgar teaches US about Baal.

 This is NOT an episode of Word With Friend! This is an episode of THE EYEROLL, a new podcast from Slumberfest (Chris Milliken and Julian Stern) where we talk about what had us rolling our eyes this week.

We actually recorded it for Monday May 1st, but all of it is still relevant; we just don't talk about AHCA. We DO talk about Mayor Eric and his maybe corruption, SHARKS, and the 25 year old nincompoop behind Fyre Fest.

Hey Framily! SURPRISE! Here's a sneak peek of THE EYEROLL, a new podcast from Slumberfest (Chris Milliken & Julian Stern) where we talk about what made us roll our eyes this week. 

  This week: Corruption in the LA Mayor's office!? The little nincompoop behind Fyre Festival, and SHARKS!  Give it a listen and let us know your thoughts! 

This week's tear-free episode (as opposed to last week's LOL) is with writer Chelsey Lora (Blindspot, Greenleaf). Chelsey is a HUGE Slumberfest fan AND Julian's go-to for 13 Reasons Why discussion (she hasn't watched it). The word this week is LACRIMAL and the theme song is VERY related. Chelsey also reveals her very very very interesting former job so definitely TUNE IN for that and so so much more. 

Ronnie Adrian is a great guy, very funny, and loves loves LOVES to make Julian uncomfortable. Listen in as this improviser (UCB's The Dragons and UCB-affiliated White Women) uses all of his tools of comedy to hone right in on every possible move that could and would throw Julian off his game. Listen to the episode that had people saying, "Does he hate you?" Julian and Ronnie also talk about happiness, grandmothers, and peregrinate.
