THIS IS TOMORROW. BUY A TICKET ALREADY.

“alex you gotta tell me next time you have a show” IT’S TOMORROW BRUH

I had a very sad dream on Thanksgiving, and about a week before that I tried to ask a woman out and it was a full-blown disaster, and tomorrow I will be talking about both of those things in our comedy show for like 8-12 minutes.

Do you enjoy jokes told out loud by real people? If so, you’ll like this, probably!

Show is ages 18 and up. Tickets are just $10 and can be had right damn here.

I’m doing god damned stand-up next week ap-fucking-parently. As usual I don’t know what I’m going to be doing. Jokes, I hope.

Before Edgar Wright and Wes Anderson, before Chuck Jones and Jackie Chan, there was Buster Keaton, one of the founding fathers of visual comedy. And nearly 100 years after he first appeared onscreen, we’re still learning from him. Today, I’d like to talk about the artistry (and the thinking) behind his gags.

I have been full-blown obsessed with physical comedy since I was 14 and sometimes when I watch Keaton I want to cry because he’s so fucking good. Rarely do Cracked videos call for anything physical, but you can see me sneaking stuff in whenever I can (mostly in Agents of Cracked).

For a recent bit of physical comedy, watch the latest episode of Fargo. Drunk Nick Offerman goes to rest his elbow on the desk at the police station but undershoots it by like four inches, falls, gets caught by Lou and then immediately slaps Lou off as a nuisance. It’s pretty perfect.

What is the craziest/weirdest/most unexpected response a reader has had to an article or video?

This isn’t TOO crazy but it still makes me laugh all these years later. Back in 2010, I invented a horrible piece of fast food called DOB’s Toilet-Bombing Heart-Molester for an article titled Fast Food Meals for Failures.

If you Google DOB’s Toilet-Bombing Heart Molester, you’ll get a BUNCH of videos of real people in the real world making and eating this full-blown disaster. We write in vacuums and you can’t see or hear anyone when an article or video goes live, so it’s easy to forget that we have any real reach into the actual real world.

On my third rewatch of your OPCD playlist, I started wondering how scripted it is. Thanks for the belly laughs.

Uh… very? Very scripted? Some episodes have two credited writers. Glad you like the show so much, but yeahyeahyeah, every video on Cracked is scripted.

HANG OUT WITH US WEDNESDAY

Please come see me do this! If we’re lucky I’ll be talking about James Bond movies, because that’s my only setting.

So it looks like this live podcast thing is going to be a monthly endeavor! This time we’re joined by my good friend/nemesis Liana Maeby. Every show so far has been sold out and lots of fun, so fucking check it out.
