With special guest Chef Pepe Le Mans, and an exclusive sketch by Luke and Abbi!

Abbi and Luke opened the show with observations about interracial unions. Observations in the form of an improvised musical that made Luke uncomfortable.

Emily Epstein picked up where Abbi left off remarking about her own couple with a comedian of color. She is committed though. She lives in Bed-Stuy.

Jay Nog took the mic and never mentioned the race of his girlfriend. Just the benefits of an alias and the cruelty of kids.

Chef Pepe Le Mans (et oui, that Le Mans!) hosted a brief cooking show while giving us our current events between chopped vegetables. A few peas, a few carrots...

and voila! A coffee cake.

Abbi returned to the scene of her hate crime (having earlier accused guests of having pasty, white kids), and bared her soul, stand-up style. Philosophizing on the true value of a Greyhound dog, a bearded friend and a Morgan Freeman.

Lance Weiss is back at The Living Room to confide in the audience about his tattoo desires and his fear of flying...when the plane is repaired by morons.

Like Ashford and Simpson, Luke and Abbi worked together to make magic. Friends Teri and Ramon discuss their friend Antonio's confession of being straight, and decide how they feel about it.

It was the same old story of acceptance vs. intolerance and just like all tales of friendship, it ended with choreography to Color Me Badd.

Living Room regular Elon James White played match maker to a young guy and gal in the first and second rows. Were they interracial? Yes. Did they hit it off? Time will tell.

Surprise guest Kyle Fincham took some time to check out the show and ended up checking it out from the stage!

Phaea Crede and Becca Jones of Delusions of Spandex brought a Ladies News segment to present more current events, but this time from a woman's perspective. A loud, sensitive, conniving and violent woman's perspective.

The Funniest Comedian of All Time award went to first-time recipient Elon James White! He became the proud owner of this presumably African and decidedly potent Fertility Statue.
Winner!  Elon James White

Join us for another melting pot of hilarity on April 25th!
