The Dan Potacke Show returns for Fall!

This time, Dan welcomes Mark Riechers to the show. Mark is a freelancer for the AV Club - Madison, specializing in his whimsical rundown of local news items in the regular News Net column. Mark also writes about video games on Twitter so prepare to sit back and watch Dan & Mark geek out about that.

We'll also have a special film presentation from local creatives Brain Fart Theatre. They make short films but the films are not short on entertainment!

Stand-up comedy will be provided by Andy Schoonhoven. Andy is a refugee of North Dakota so prepare to hear jokes about how much he hates South Dakota.

All that plus: skits, the Wheel of Fantasticness and awkward transitions between bits!

ALSO: WE'LL BE DOING A SPECIAL DAN POTACKE SHOW AT THE ROCK COUNTY FOLK SYMPOSIUM THIS SUNDAY AROUND 5:30 PM. Come on out and see us tell jokes in an undisclosed location in the woods!

Hey everybody, it's time for another Dan Potacke Show! Are you excited? I am! I will assume you are too!

With great reviews, sold-out shows & a mention on Rachel Maddow's blog, the new play The Lamentable Tragedy of Scott Walker has already opened to tremendous success. Now they continue to ride their wave of success with the ultimate honor... appearing on The Dan Potacke Show! Writer/Director Doug Reed and several cast members w...ill be stopping by to explain what it has been like reenacting recent politics through the veil of a quasi-Shakespearean epic. They might even perform a scene for us!

That should easily be enough to get you to come on out but there's more... THERE'S WAELTI!

Formerly-local comedian Chris Waelti was a fixture of The Dan Potacke Show for the first several months of the show and I am honored to have him back. Now that he is a New York comedian, I assume most of his jokes will be about subway rats & how things where he lives are different than how things are in L.A.

Wow, what a great show!

As always, it's at the Frequency, 121 W Main St. Madison, WI. 7 PM - No cover, 18+
