Cartoon Dump

Imagine a world where a children's show has a cast of characters with more psychological disorders than you. Add the mind-numbing debauchery of the worst, most poorly animated cartoons from the 1950s, '60s, and '70s, and you've got what Patton Oswalt says is "like a children's show in Bosnia!"

The unholy alliance of noted author, producer and cartoon scholar Jerry Beck and writer/producer/comedian Frank Conniff ("TV's Frank" from MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000).

8 p.m., Tuesday, June 23rd
Tickets $10

Trevor Moore & Josh Fadem

For two nights only, at the stroke of midnight, Trevor Moore will do a talk show thing and Josh Fadem will do some other stuff too. They will do these things all in one show, plus some other stuff too, all in one, plus more. The show will be called, appropriately, "The Show Where Trevor Moore Does a Talk Show Thing and Josh Fadem Does Some Other Stuff Too All In One... Plus More." What's in a title? Nothing but the purest and simplest truth, and for a mere five dollars, general members of the public are invited to come, enter the building, sit in some chairs, and witness these events unfold before them.

POCHO HOUR OF POWER

8pm, Saturday, June 27th
Tickets $10


Pacifica's KPFK 90.7 FM is home to the most raucous, irreverent and politically smart radio talk show anywhere, the L.A.-based Spanglish-slinging Pocho Hour of Power. Co-hosted by nationally syndicated daily newspaper cartoonist and comedian Lalo Alcaraz, satirist and filmmaker Esteban Zul, stand-up comedian Jeff Keller, and voice impersonator and director Patrick Perez, the volatile breakout hit show has attracted a vast audience, star guests and IRS scrutiny. On any given Pocho Hour of Power you can hear satirical radio sketches, politically charged parody songs and even serious public affairs segments.

See the show live for the first time on stage at the Steve Allen Theater!

Past guests have included:
Ry Cooder (Buena Vista Social Club), The Blasters, Dave Foley (Kids In The Hall, Brain Candy), Aaron McGruder (Boondocks), Dr. Dolores Huerta, Mo Collins (MADtv, Curb Your Enthusiasm), Gillian Vigman (Sons and Daughters, MADtv), Father Guido Sarducci (SNL), Dan Piraro (Bizarro), Rick Overton, Ike Barinholtz (MADtv), Jerry Minor (SNL), Jay Johnston (Moral Orel, Mr. Show), Dino Stamotopolous, Scott Adsit, Lou Chalibre
