Madballs: Gross Jokes

It begins with a warning. It is said that the episode contains scenes that may offend viewers. It is also said that most viewers may experience nagging backache, rapid heartbeat, post-nasal drip and delerium, swelling of the nose, throat, and abdomen and loss of facial hair. Repeated viewing of the episode will result in the loss of one's bodily functions, redistribution of facial features, and a difficulty in forming simple sentences. The announcer concludes the warning by saying that you should definitely watch this episode if you really want to have a career as a lawn ornament. After the roll call(which curiously excludes Bash Brain), Bash Brain appears and says that he's never seen anything so awful in his life. He then reminisces about some time in a hosptial.

Oh! Calcutta!

Based on the controversial off-Broadway musical comedy revue, "Oh! Calcutta!" is a series of musical numbers about sex and sexual mores. Most of the skits feature one or more performers in a state of undress, simulating sex, or both.

The title is taken from a painting by Clovis Trouille, itself a pun on "O quel cul t'as!" French for "What an arse you have!".

Ashley Gavin: Live in Chicago

It's Ashley Gavin's debut comedy special! You might know her from Comedy Central, Netflix, or as Carnival Cruise line's first openly gay performer. Maybe you've seen her viral TikToks and have been waiting for this hour long comedy special for years. To you she might just be the lesbian comedian and the host of the We're Having Gay Sex & Chosen Family podcasts. This is her debut special, so she really came to introduce herself to the world as a stand up comedian, and nothing else. Of course, LGBT issues will be covered, but there is way more. We get into emotional eating, deconstructing pro life arguments, feminism, women's rights, and what the supreme court should have done, dating and relationships, and even a little bit of good old fashion small talk.
