G4’s International Sexy Lady Show… and me.
I am on 12 episodes of a show for G4 called “The International Sexy Lady Show” on G4, and, apparently, they just aired the first episode today. Basically, it’s a Vh1 “Best Week Ever” type show, where instead of making fun of pop culture moments, myself and four other comics make fun of various foreign television shows featuring mostly naked, or fully nude women, participating in strange game shows, wrestling, cleaning homes, and engaging in other important activities. Basically, it’s a show written by, and created for, feminists. Show, if you feel like taking a break from watching actual porn, maybe you should watch some almost porn featuring commentary from me. It’ll almost be like we’re watching it together!!
The International Sexy Lady Show!
The Hollywood Improv this Friday, Feb 12th…
Hello LA. Nine years in to standup, and I have my first headlining show in your Hollywood heart, 8PM, 8162 Melrose Ave., at the mother of all Improvs. Can’t wait. The good news for you!?! (next to me performing), nearly free tickets at www.improv.com. All you have to pay is the $3 service charge, and you get a $20 ticket for, well, three bucks. Here’s how: Go to www.improv.com, you will see a list of locations, choose Hollywood, CA. Then, you’ll see a list of upcoming shows with my majestic mug. Click “buy tickets” under my headshot. Then, you’ll have to click “select date”, pick the one date listed, click “buy tickets” again, type “blast” in the box marked “promotion”, click “update”, and, voila! $3 ticket price. The only way I could make it easier for you to get these tickets would be to buy them myself, and then hand deliver them to your doorstep, and then piggyback you into the showroom, and, that’s not gonna happen. Ever. I’m sorry. We all have our pet peeves. If you don’t want to buy on-line, you can also e-mail the Improv manager, Dee Burdett, at deeburdett@improv.com with your name and the number in your party, and then show up to the box office at the club before 7:30 to pay $10 instead of $20 at the door. You’re welcome! Hope to see you there. Besides me, Brooks McBeth, Ryan McKee, Terry Mulroy, and Kumail Nanjiani will also be performing. Thanks!!

Comedy Central’s Stand-Up Showdown…
Well, it’s that time of year again. The time Comedy Central encourages their comics to harass their fans for on-line and text voting. Hooray!! Last year, I placed 3rd in this contest. Because of that, they gave me a One Hour Special, which has already been filmed, and will air in the Spring (I will announce the official date as soon as I get it). This year, if I place well, hopefully I will get a really good air date, and more re-airings of the new special. That means more times to watch it for you! (let’s just pretend TiVo and Youtube don’t exist for a moment). Seriously though, the top 20 vote getters will have their half-hour special aired on Jan. 31st in a countdown to number one. A lot of people watch this stand-up marathon every year, and placing well last year introduced me to a lot more fans. So, please help!! Here’s how you vote: You can click the link below to vote on-line, or you can text STANDUP CUMMINS to 44686. You can vote as many times as you want via text (standard text messaging fees apply), or you can vote once a minute on-line. Or, you can text WHILE voting on-line WHILE staring at a picture of me with my eyes scratched out WHILE crying WHILE wishing your roommate/mom would get off your back about finding a job WHILE staring at your freshly loaded again. It’s up to you!!!! Voting ends Jan 31st. Oh, and Happy Holidays everybody!!
