WHY IT'S A PICK
OKAY - wait... so there's comedy, a house band, and PIES!?!?!?? ABOUT THE SHOW - FROM THE PRODUCER Join host Boris Khaykin and his sidekick Uncle Jawnee Conroy for a late night show like none other. They'll sit down and get weird with their interview guests, followed by some of the city's best improvisers "breaking down" the interview. If all that ain't enough, their house band is a beatboxer because it's DOPE and super easy to deal with compared to a full band.
We love the diversity of this line up and the groovy location. ABOUT THE SHOW - FROM THE PRODUCER Come see what happens when a swanky corner coffee shop turns into an upbeat and off-center comedy show with some of the funniest comedians in all of New York. It's a small and mighty show that's always a good time! It's at Hungry Ghost's Fulton Street location (781 Fulton Street). If you happen to arrive late, enter through the side door on South Oxford Street.

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!
