Auld Acquainted Darlins,
Happy New Year’s to our same dears! Wherever you fall on the New Year-New You spectrum, we hope this finds you in a place of contentment and general ok-ness. Last year was, like many, both great and not great… but we remain great-full for the journey and pleased to have such glad company for our glad company. We’ve resolved to live in a fuller, happier, less resistant, not as constantly overthinky way, ditching some of the rocks (boulders?) we’ve inadvertently been toting in our proverbial pockets and replacing them with… air? Lightness? Popcorn? We say, AOTA!™ (All Of The Above!) We encourage you to find and seek joy, be nice to people, and use your Turdometer 2023™ with abandon. What is the Turdometer 2023™? It’s your own, improved (because despite ourselves, we are all getting older and wiser every day) intuition situation. If something or someone seems kinda… you know, turdy? Trust your gut! Walk away. Flush ‘em. Keep your life bowl sparkling in 2023 by saying “Yuck, no thanks” to human and emotional turds. (By the way, "one human’s turd may be another human’s treasure," so just because you deem it flushable doesn’t mean it won’t be totally loved and accepted by someone else. Let the turds live in peace with the turds. Who knew our first transmission of the year would be so turdcentric? If you did, email us immediately! Your intuitive powers are on point and we'd love to hear more about what's in store for our future newsies!)
🦇 What an absolutely batshit first paragraph to the first newsie of the year. Let this be the year of positive, fun guano.
🤩 In other news, Dynasty just got it’s (20)23 and Me results back and we’re STUNNED with all the relations we have! Check out our January results!
TONIGHT we’re kicking off the New Year with a *SOLD OUT* show from TIM HEIDECKER & FRED ARMISEN. We’d go on and on about it but that would be rude since it’s totally sold out and resolved not to be low-level braggarts anymore. We’ll tell you about it next week, tastefully. Oh wait, how about whoever emails us with the best, most thoughtful, heartfelt, positive New Years haiku wins 2 free tickets! Isn't cool that we can just do that?
THURSDAY at 7:30PM it’s LOVETT OR Leave It! We’re so glad that JON LOVETT continues his Dynasty residency. We love the podcast, and we love that the news and pop culture deep dives take place on our stage!

TUESDAY 1/10 at 7:30PM it’s MICHAEL J. FELDMAN’s insane solo-show, “No, but I’m definitely in a better place than I’ve been in a long time.”
His description: A raging narcissist attempts to put up a one-man show about his dog as the world is ending.
Our description: Michael is an amazing writer and performer who has always thrived working with absurd huge characters that zero in on the actual bizarre minutiae of life- this show does that with a WOOF. Also he looks really good in a dog costume. Directed by TOM DeTRINIS.
23 and… We ,
