  • Never-ending Comedy Contest
    • Lane Krarup gathers together comedians who then compete for a panel of three veteran comedians who act as judges and between-set commentators. At the end of every show, Mr. Krarup and regular guest Pat Sirois freestyle rap about whatever the audience calls out.
  • Comedian Battle Rap Authority
    • Comics perform stand up, riff and rap on audience suggestions, and battle until one winner remains.
