Show 45: The Great Debate
Photography by Aemiessence Fine Arts
It was a toss-up: watch the presidential debates on television or view live comedy and experience some of the great orators of our time! Fortunately we had a wise audience.
Host of Honor Emily Epstein introduced the following lineup:
Kyle Grooms
Ryan Conner
Phil Kessell
Wil Sylvince
Matt Ruby
Matt McCarthy
Luke Thayer
With a special comedy short and news segment by Abbi Crutchfield.
Something was missing this week as Luke welcomed the crowd to the forty-fifth show alone. Luckily Abbi was able to make some appearances via satellite, and our lineup of great comics helped ease the pain of not having the founding mother of Living Room comedy in the house.
Emily Epstein had to dig deep and use all her womanliness to balance out the unusually high level of testosterone on the lineup.
Unfortunately, Abbi was under the weather and had to deliver the news from home, as she was quarantined. Dollitis is a terrible thing to catch.
Kyle Grooms was preaching to the Park Slope choir and making them double over with laughs using his dead-on Barack Obama impression.
Ryan Conner let us know that living in The Garden State is not all roses.
Phil Kessell made his stand-up debut. Many of you have seen him helping out around The Living Room. Now you got to see him be funny!
Wil Sylvince showed us all why he's one of New York's hottest comics by keeping the crowd in stitches and capping it off with a little super hero action.
For the love of crazy names, The Living Room presented a comedy short about a conversation overheard in an L.A. Daycare. Click here to watch the video on youtube!
Matt Ruby hipped us on the musical side of comedy. Make sure you ask him how his is like jazz.
Matt McCarthy popped in to tell us the dangers of buying comic books on the streets.
Luke capped the night off with a talk about politics. He may not know much, but at least he knows he's right.
He did it again folks! Matt McCarthy walked away with the grandest of all comedic awards: The Funniest Comedian of All Time!
This is his fourth or fifth, and it's getting ridiculous. So he gets a pair of old flip-flops.
Fall is here! Be sure to put on a sweater before our next show Friday, October 10th!
Also watch for Abbi on the 2008 VH1 Hip Hop Honors!

Show 38: Interracial Extra Special
Photography by Aemiessence Fine Arts
Emily Epstein hosted a splendid lineup:
Jay Nog
Abbi Crutchfield
Lance Weiss
Elon James White
Kyle Fincham
a sketch by Delusions of Spandex
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.
Join us for another melting pot of hilarity on April 25th!

Show 19: Chips and Dips
Stop what you're doin', 'cause I'm about to ruin the Living and the Room that you're used to.
How's this for a hot line-up, Son?
Carolyn Castiglia
Josh Filipowski
Abbi Crutchfield
Emily Epstein
Elon James White
Nick Cobb
Our last show was amazing and jam-packed with rap-tastic videos, political improv, and Emo ramblings. The party started with two-time F-CAT* award-winner Carolyn Castiglia as hostess (not the snack cake, she clarified, but girlfriend does look delicious in pink)!
Abbi Crutchfield stepped up to preach sneezing etiquette. Sayeth the Good Book: Thou shalt not say bless you in an unfriendly manner. But not too friendly either, Perv.
Celebrity Sighting! NYC writer/producer Nichelle Stephens swung by to support her friends and see what all the hub-bub is about. She got her fair share of hub (Carolyn's) and Bub (a beatbox sound) during the Living Room's debut of a hot new music video.
Are you ready to take it to the toppy-toppy-tip? We all were witness to the mad skillz of Miss CKC, Badlands Booker, Baron Vaughn, Matt "Illiam Phatner" Sears and Shockwave in this collaborative effort rap video "I Can't Stop (Chips)". Live it again, for the first time.
Josh Filipowski brought energy and seven more inches to the stage (inches of height! Bro-ham is tall) and shared the dangers of telephonic Russian Roulette.
All the way from Washington, D.C., both George W. Bush and Condoleezza Rice made their second appearances on the show. This time as improv troupe Freedom Force Five.
We learned of the charitable contributions of the effervescent Emily Eptsein (aliteration abounds!)
...and experienced the charity case that is Elon James White. Awww, just keeding, Elon thoughtfully made a surprise visit, and the room rumbled with E-lation.
Success, business, marriage...what does it matter to an aspiring Emo musician from a broken home? Nothing at all. That's according to Jude Pungent who wimpered and whined his way through the news.
Big shot/hot shot/army cot/tater tot Nick Cobb headlined to cap off a superior night of live comedy.
He returned for his third attempt at the F-CAT award, but tonight, one Josh Filipowski was dubbed the Funniest Comedian of All Time! Oh Hat of Chance, you are tough but fair. Josh doesn't need any help maintaining a positive attitude, but now he can graduate to motivational speaker with the help of Healthy Pleasures.
This lucky audience member had a belly full of laughs and won a belly full of yummy burrito-- a gift certificate of dinner for two at the muy splendida Rachel's Taqueria in Park Slope! One of these red-headed women is her cousin.
Come back in April and learn how to ward off evil spirits at our second Friday the 13th Spooktacular!
*Funniest Comedian of All Time (or Fiercest Corn Arepas Taster, if you're working the Kraft services table on America's Next Top Model).
