Hey, I finally put up some new episode videos.

Also, the show gets interrupted by anti-health care protester Chris, Potacke shows the audience the pilot for his new PBS series and Dan Potacke tries to sell the audience on Dan Potacke: Wedding Planner!

August 31st Show Preview and Dan Potacke announces his run for Governor of Wisconsin!

August 26th, 2009
With Jim Doyle out of the WI governor's race, Dan Potacke is throwing his hat into the ring. Well, he would if he could afford to buy a hat.


Support the Potacke campaign by coming to The Dan Potacke Show on Monday, August 31st at 6 p.m. at the Frequency. See, that was a good transition.

This Monday, it will be a packed edition of The Dan Potacke show as Potacke welcomes the organizers of the Forward Music Festival. They will discuss the challenges of putting together such a large festival and Potacke will ask why he wasn’t chosen to open for Andrew Bird. Barbara Bolan, Executive Director of WYOU, will add to the fun as she describes her experiences as sales manager for I.R.S. Records and how she is using her experience in the music industry to revamp and revitalize community television. Comedian David Leon will open the show with a set that’s showing why he’s quickly becoming known as one of the freshest, most exciting comedians in Madison.

Plus, there will be a magician. THAT’S RIGHT, A MAGICIAN. Magician Nick Wiszynski will end the night with an amazing show of illusion and wonder.

All that, and a special farewell to longtime Madison comedian Chris Waelti on his final night in Wisconsin before he moves to NYC to find his fame and fortune. Chris Waelti has appeared in some capacity in the vast majority of Dan Potacke Shows. Here's a clip from his appearance in the 8/17 show as an angry protester who thinks he is at a health care town-hall meeting.


The show is at the Frequency at 6 pm and is FREE for those 21 and up. It's going to be a blast!

August 3rd - Dan Potacke Show w/ Lords of the Trident

July 29th, 2009


I made this poster in MS Paint as opposed to my usual Photoshop, can you tell?

Hi, everybody, it's Dan Potacke! I'm really excited for my next show!

This time, I'm going to welcome "the most metal band on Earth," the :> Lords of the Trident. :> Well, 4/5ths of them. They are going to bring the godly power they have over both amplifiers and the forces of evil and bring it to the Frequency for a nice chat.

Also, we've got Adam Waldron on, he's putting on a screening of a new Zack Galifianakis movie called Visioneers. Before the movie, he's going to have a live comedy show featuring lots of people... including me. Wow, cross promotion!

Also appearing that night, comedian Mike Schmidt. He's recently had a video that reached the top 10 on a Comedy Central online contest, so he'll be too big to get on this show before long.

As always, the show is at the Frequency (121 W. Main). The show starts at 6 pm and it's absolutely FREE!
