Hosted by Kurt Braunohler and Kristen Schaal, this weekly variety show features comedy from New York’s best comics and sketch groups, new music, and the occasionally oddity.

Please note that Kristen's co-host and partner-in-crime, Kurt Braunohler, won't be joining us this evening. He has more important matters to attend to, obviously.
