Photo Recap: Let’s Not Die! A Yellow Dot Fundraiser
Dynasty Typewriter was proud to present an evening with Adam McKay’s Yellow Dot Studios as they combated the greatest existential threat facing humanity. Hilarious stuff! Let’s Not Die! (both the show name and a plea to fossil fuel CEOs) featured stand-up comedy, music, sketches, videos, and an interview with a real-life climate scientist. It was a hilarious – and enraging – fundraiser for Yellow Dot Studios, a non-profit media studio calling out polluters and mobilizing action on the climate emergency.
The evening featured special guests Nick Kroll, Aparna Nancherla, Sean O’Connor, Nikki Glaser, Esteban Gast, a special appearance by Adam McKay, and surprise drop-in John Mulaney.
