“Seth Rogen’s Hilarity For Charity” was taped during this year’s Just For Laughs festival in Montreal and will debut on The Comedy Network on August 31st.
In addition to comedy sets by acclaimed comedians like Hannibal Buress, Jim Norton, Al Madrigal, Jerrod Carmichael, Joe Mande, and Michelle Wolf, there were also a few surprise appearances from people like actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt, NHLer P.K. Subban, and “The Stanley Cup.”
A few snippets from the special:
Hannibal Burress on podiatrists: “Being a podiatrist has to be great because the stakes are so low. You never have to walk into a waiting room and go ‘I’m sorry… your son didn’t make it. His bunions went into his prostate.’”
Jerrod Carmichael on Tinder: “Tinder is missing a maybe option. It should have an option where you swipe up and that means, maybe. And then those faces don’t reappear until after three in the morning.”
Jim Norton on modern technology: “Could you imagine if in high school in the 80s, they had told us this technology was coming. Someday soon, you’re going to hold a glass telephone, and you can use that phone to take a picture of your d*ck, and send it to any woman in the world. I wouldn’t even ask if it worked as a phone.”
Al Madrigal on breastfeeding: “I saw a lady who was breastfeeding a kid who was way too old to be breastfed. You ever see that? Ladies – a child should not be old enough to comment on the quality.”
Joe Mande on L.A. becoming a hockey town: “We live in L.A –Hockeytown, U.S.A. Um I know. That sucks for you. We keep winning and no one cares. No one cares.”
“Seth Rogen’s Hilarity For Charity” airs on Sunday, August 31st at 9pm.
