@onelinermadness is one of the most fun shows of the year. If you ever get the chance to see it, it's a blast. @emilymcwinter made such a fun and cool community, go check it out.

Shout out to @tastytim123 for photographing the event and giving the entire Pittsburgh comedy scene headshots on what is now a very dirty orange couch.

Definitely not what I expected, and not why I came. But an experience I can't forget.

I did little to nothing for @onelinermadness minus slang some chairs because soml.

Thanks to @tastytim123 for reminding me why I always need to keep a curling iron in my car (and stop leaving it at venues all over the tri-state area).

Still one of my favorite nights of the year. 🫶

We can see you. What is life without perception? We wanna perceive you, and that isn't necessarily a bad thing. 🙃

⭐ @onelinermadness at @spiritpgh is one of my favorite nights of the year ⭐️

Congratulations to @disilviolorenzo 👑 and second place @plasmarift 🏆

A couple of important notes:
1. The height difference between Weidman and Lorenzo isn’t that insane but this pic cracks me up.
2. I should’ve taken more pics
3. I hate chairs so effing much.

In this episode, Eileen Kelly and Emily Winter swap some ghost stories and share a little practical magic with pendulums and energy work. This paranormal episode lifts the veil dividing this realm and the next, although this realm is not without its horrors. Find out if modern culture has killed joy or if society as a whole is scarier than the things that go bump in the night.

I know this looks like me struggling at LAX but it’s actually an Emily Winter appreciation post. I just hosted two versions of One Liner Madness while Emily’s been recovering from being sick and while I’ve been in the show as a judge and contestant many times I’ve never experienced it as the master of ceremonies and hoo-daddy is that a different ball game. It’s a relentless wrangling and hosting gig that Emily has made look effortless for a decade. I want to curl up in a hole with a Diet Coke and pizza for two weeks after walking in these shoes. She’s kept a truly special and singular show rocking and there’s not enough credit in the world to give her for that. Consider this comment section an open forum to give it up to one of the hardest working people I’ve ever met who has given so many comics a place to tell thousands of jokes. I can’t believe I’m lucky enough to be married to this beacon of comedy light!
