Yatesy Comedy

When I’m not writing jokes or stuffing my face with assorted delicious food, I enjoy helping out my fellow comics with video stuff. My friend and fellow comic Alejandro Morales started a web series called Dates, where 2 people go on a first date. I’ve had a bit part in one and have helped out with production on 2 others, and I gotta say, it’s great and really funny! Check it out!

Every single day I spend here on the East Coast makes me long for the sun. This crazy winter has turned us all into sun deprived tauntauns (hello, fellow nerds). So there are two things to do: drink beer and lay on the sofa and come see comedy. I’m about 50/50 on all of that.

Here’s some upcoming dates:

Feb 8- Comedy Trainwreck- Daly’s Pub, Phila. PA

Feb 11- Second Stories “Be Mine”- The Dive Bar, Phila. PA

Feb 22- Featuring- Crazy Cow Comedy Club, Manayunk, Phila. PA

March 28- The East Village’s Giggle Pit- Klimat Lounge, NYC

April 4 & 5- Hosting-Crazy Cow Comedy Club, Manayunk, Phila. PA

April 12- Standup Evolution- Lancaster, PA

April 25- Grovers Mill Coffee Shop, West Windsor NJ

So that’s Philly, NYC and Jersey. Unless, of course, the Polar Vortex becomes sentient and devours all of us whole during some upcoming snowstorm. I mean, stranger things have happened….right?

If you need me, I’ll be over here…wrapped in my down comforter stress eating Girl Scout cookies and daydreaming about complaining that my ac doesn’t work and it’s too hot to move.

Or…at a show. Hope to see ya there!

I think the title of this post pretty much sums up what’s going on here in Philly. I spent some time out in Los Angeles in December and they had to drag me back kicking and screaming. If anyone has job leads out there, let me know. I have had quite enough of this ridiculous weather, thanks. Brrr…..

Anywho, I hope everyone had a chill holiday season. The comedy rolls on here in Yatesyville. I will be defending Carol the Crazy Kenzo Mom’s title at the 2nd Annual Veggie Wing Bowl on Feb. 1! And lots of other fun stuff here:

Jan 10 & 11: Crazy Cow Comedy- Manayunk, Philly, PA

Jan 14: Polygon Comedy Show- L’etage, Philly PA

Feb. 1- 2nd Annual Veggie Wing Bowl- Adobe Cafe, Philly, PA

Feb 8- Comedy Trainwreck- Daly’s Pub, Phila. PA

Feb 11- Second Stories “Be Mine”- The Dive Bar, Phila. PA

Feb 22- Featuring- Crazy Cow Comedy Club, Manayunk, Phila. PA

In other news, I put together a little reel of silly things I have been in (with tons of really funny philly comedy peeps).

So stay warm out there. Only a few months until the sun comes back.

Until then, come to a show and drink your face off.

Well it looks like fall has finally decided to show it’s face. I’m sure it’ll be here for a short time, so enjoy hoodie weather while ya can!

For people like me, there are 2 seasons: the sweaty season and the freezy season. This is the sweaty season. I’m not too much of a fan.

I’ve been spending time inside lately. I did Kevin Lau and Dan Scully’s podcast Super Crappy Funtime. That was a blast and they are really fun to talk to!

Check it out here.

Stay in the AC and eat lots of ice cream!

Hey guys,

So a few weekends back I stood in the rain and the mud while watching Tim Butterly have a slow meltdown about getting lyme disease. I was also helping John McKeever (of Bird Text fame) shoot a silly little short called “Samesies”. John knows I love to play a weirdo and there ya go.

Wanna watch? Here ya go. See if you can spot me!

**UPDATE-5-31-13**- This video has been on the front page of Reddit, on Gawker and the Huffington Post! George Takei posted it on Facebook and even Don Cheadle tweeted a link to it, saying it was hilarious. As of right now, 11:17 on May 31st, the video has gotten 558k views on YouTube! Wow! Thanks everyone!

**UPDATE-6-4-13**- Up to 754 thousand views on Youtube and Team Coco posted the link!

**UPDATE-6-21-13**- Up to 889 thousand (889k!!) views on Youtube

Hey There,

So I’ve been kinda busy lately.

Back on May 8th I was on the podcast “Bob and Dave are Terrible People“, which was a lot of fun. I’ll never think of thumbdicks the same way. Check it out here.

I also did some storytelling on Jaime Fountiaine’s show Second Stories show at The Dive here in Philly. Storytelling shows are so much fun and she runs a great one! It was cool to be on her anniversary show, as there were minicupcakes!

And I also went with Paul Easton up to Lancaster to do a show at Stand Up Evolution. I forgot to buy some pies, and I’m still mad at that. I did see a drunk amish kid drive a miniwagon tho, so that was…unique. And amusing.

2 weeks ago I was also in a new video coming out, and of course I play the weirdo. Gotta go with what works right?

I have a bunch of fun stuff coming up soon, so in between your midget porn, sports updates and facebook stalking, swing on by and check it out!

Hope all of you out there are enjoying spring before it gets boiling hot!

Go, Global Warming! Go, Go, Go, Go!

PS,

I went to see Pete Holmes last nite and if you have a chance, go see him, He is hilarious!

Hey Everyone!,

Happy April Fool’s Day.

Also, Happy Dingus Day (go throw a water balloon at someone. It’s a Polish thing.).

The next two weeks I have some fun stuff coming up!

Wednesday, April 3rd: I’m doing standup at Chaos Comedy at Adobe Cafe in South Philly.

Check out the promo video!

Thursday April 4th: I’m hosting the whole night of sketch comedy at the Philly Improv Theater (PHIT)- 4th and Bainbridge

Friday April 5th: I’m hosting again at Phit and I’m also on one of my favorite shows, Hillary Rea‘s Fibber (4 people tell a story, who is the fibber?)!

Tuesday April 8th: I’m on Jaime Fountaine‘s Second Stories show at The Dive in South Philly, telling a really ridiculous and true story!

So swing on by! The hosting I’m doing at Phit is going to be fun, it’s all sketch comedy! I’m super stocked because my friends in ManiPedi have a show and there is a new Monthly Hour with James Hesky as well. Manipedi is a really funny sketch group here in Philly and The Monthly Hour is a rundown of what’s going on, is sharply written and has a great cast of goofballs. Also, Dancin’ Shawny is a guest this month!

I love Comedy in Philly.
