about the show - from the producer 
Right NOW! with Carolyn Castiglia
A live talk show with a live band hosted by a live wire.

The marriage episode!

"A heady mix of stand-up comedy, music and conversation, Right NOW! is refreshingly self-aware and just the right amount of raw. Rebecca Vigil leads the house band and is both hilarious and an amazingly accomplished improvisational singer who complements Castiglia’s equally hilarious and incredibly quick-witted hosting style. No, really—I’ve rarely seen anyone as quick on their feet as Castiglia, and it works beautifully with the tone and pace of the show." - A Women's Thing

Comedy couples Evan Kaufman/Caitlin Kean and Keisha Zollar/Andrew Kimler play The New Newlywed Game!

...and more surprises! I mean, probably. At least possibly.

Plus, as always, featured performer Katie Hartman (Skinny Bitch Jesus Meeting) and the music of Rebecca Vigil and The Righteous NOW!

about the show - from the producer 
It's that "Virgin Chronicles" show time again! Comics and storytellers tell stories of first times. Could be first time having sex, doing drugs, rock 'n rolling, first car, first job, etc... Who knows??? Last show we had some show and-tell with dioramas and dildos! So, maybe leave the kids at home... 
And, of course FREE CANDY and GIFT CARDS to the first 10 who follow us on INSTAGRAM!!!
