🎤 Meet @yatescomedy!

Comedian, writer, actor, and apparently a hot sauce entrepreneur because one job wasn't enough. Dave has appeared on Amazon's *Laugh After Dark*, performed at comedy festivals across the country, and has a comedy album, *One Long Merch Pitch*, that's been played on SiriusXM.

We're excited to have him joining us at Java Station this Saturday. Come see him live, and maybe ask about the hot sauce.

📍 Java Station, Santa Barbara
📅 Saturday, October 17 | 7:30 PM
🎟️ $15 online | $20 at the door

Your October plans could use a night out. @wastedpotentialcomedy is back at Java Station on Saturday, October 17 at 7:30 PM!

Headliner Max Meisel (@maxmeisel86) has been touring with Tom Arnold, and now he’s bringing his comedy to Santa Barbara. Joining him are Juli Polise (@julipolise), comedian and founder of LA’s Laughaholics, and Dave Yates (@yatescomedy), whose credits include Laugh After Dark and SiriusXM. Our own Ashley Blom (@ashleyblomcomedy) is hosting fresh off her 30-something-th birthday, so expect a little birthday nonsense, too.

It feels good to be home. ❤️

Laugh After Dark started right here in LA, so getting to be back doing shows every month feels pretty special.

Last night, @keonpolee took the stage at @flapperscomedy alongside a hilarious lineup for another night of Laugh After Dark in the Main Room.

So much has happened since those early LA days - new cities, new shows, specials, ComedyFest, LADTV, and a whole lot of growing - but there’s something really special about coming back to where it all began and getting to do this again.

Thank you to everyone who spent their Saturday night laughing with us. ❤️

And we don’t have to wait long to do it again…
We’re back at Flappers September 12! 🎤🔥
Less than two weeks away.
See you soon, LA. ❤️

Well! I finally did it! I have been wanting to do this for a long time. I fullfiled a childhood dream. I want to be a stand up comic. With some guidance and encouragement and telling me to “Just go do it worry about the results when they happen” @yatescomedy I was scurrrred! But I did I! I hope to one day do it again! #comedy #childhooddream #faceyourfear

One of many many reasons you’ll want to hit @mintoncardcomedy at @blastftp in Burbank every month isn’t just the phenomenal comedians, or the palatial venue, or the community—you might also win an irreverent custom toy!

I was laughing to the point of literal tears because of @ryanoflan and seeing @danagould talk about Wilson’s Leather Outlet literally forced my consciousness to violently travel through time. Also hot sauce! Perfect show.
