With a wedding on the horizon for the co-producers, this show was about rolling with the big changes life brings us.

Host of Honor Dave Lester introduced the following lineup:
Brendan Fitzgibbons
Yannis Pappas
Luke Thayer
Elon James White
Mike Dobbins

With a sketch by Abbi Crutchfield and a special guest appearance by Erykah Badu with the news.

IMG_7309
Abbi and Luke welcomed viewers to the fifty-fifth show and then Luke stepped aside to let Abbi work on her crowd work. It's still as uncomfortable as ever.

IMG_7314
Past funniest Comedian of All Time winner and new father of twins Dave Lester took the stage and told us all why he loves Target.

IMG_7331
Brendan Fitzgibbons talked about the country's big change and shared his thoughts on the Obama administration. Like how hot the First Lady is.


IMG_7376
Abbi Crutchfield changed her M.O. and gave us her third installment of her Fake One-Woman Show, this time re-living the chilliness of office icebreakers.

IMG_7401
Yannis Pappas made a big change by making his debut to the show! He gave an in-depth analysis of drug use the likes you might find in a Paul Haggis film starring Michael Douglas.

IMG_7416
Luke Thayer took his turn and told us how he needs his space, especially now that he's about to get married.

Elon James White
Elon James White hates going to weddings and spent most of his set warning Luke. His big change is his diet, resulting in a more svelt, angry man.

IMG_7465
Erykah Badu emerged from the shadows to give us the scoop on where she's been and what she's been badu-in.

IMG_7496
Mike Dobbins treated us all to his particular brand of comedy, giving us the skinny on catty goats. The big change comes from the crowd as each member cracks up at different times.

IMG_7520
Don't call it a comeback, the Hat of Chance elected Elon James White the Funniest Comedian of All Time! He can stay fresh and so clean with his new soap on a rope!

Wash up for our next show on April 10th! It's the only show for the entire month, so make sure to wish Luke and Abbi well as they get married at the end of April!

Phil Murphy
Baratunde Thurston
Luke Thayer
Katina Corrao

With special guest appearances by Halle Berry and singer M.I.A. with the news.

Abbi Crutchfield and Luke Thayer
Abbi and Luke welcomed viewers to the 53rd show by reminding viewers they are getting married in 2 months! Then they fought over whose name Abbi will take. She likes "Depp" or "Diggs".

J-L Cauvin
Back for his fifth visit to the show, J-L Cauvin is no stranger to celebrity-life. He's already been on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson!

Isaac Landfert
Isaac Landfert made his debut on the show and discussed life as he makes his way toward 30. Just a baby in movie producer years.

Abbi Crutchfield as Halle Berry
Academy Award-winner Halle Berry made a public service announcement about injustice in the world, including Mickey Rourke's missing Oscar.

Phil Murphy
Phil Murphy celebrated his first time on the show, discussing sports and the people who are obsessed with them.

Baratunde Thurston
The Onion's Baratunde Thurston rallied the crowd with tales and slides of his experience on CNN.

Abbi Crutchfield as M.I.A.
Did somebody say awards show? The woman who rocked the Grammy's with her pregnant-bellied rap came on our show to give us her postpartum take on the current events.

Luke Thayer
Don't take it personally Tommy Lee Jones, but Luke Thayer says old people have no purpose at the gym. No Country for Old Men reference, one year later!

Katina Corrao
Katina Corrao knows all about major events, and shared with us her wacky Convention Center antics.

Winner!  Isaac Landfert
Isaac Landfert became the Funniest Comedian of All Time! He'll have no trouble singing the blues with these colorful plastic harmonicas. Jam on!

Spring is marching in like a lion, so come help us tame it at our next show March 13th!
