Free!
Monday at 7:00 is Doug Loves Movies!
Comedian Doug Benson invites some of his fancy comedy friends to sit down and discuss his first love – movies! He also makes them play games they might not understand. 85 minutes of fun crammed into 90 minutes!

Monday at 9:00 is Competitive Erotic Fan Fiction!
Competitive Erotic Fan Fiction is a comedy show (and soon-to-be podcast) founded in Seattle, created & hosted by Bryan Cook. Each event features 10 comics, writing and performing Erotic Fan Fiction pieces, based on their whims or audience suggestions. It’s really stupid.
