The Comedy Button
What's going on, Internet!? Prepare for some of the most insane rambling about everything from life, to sex, to what passes for 21st-century Internet culture. Your aural canals are ours, and we're filling them with nonsense -- courtesy of hosts Brian Altano, Scott Bromley, Ryan Scott, Max Scoville, and Kristin Van De Yar.

The world suddenly makes a lot more sense when you realize there are no actual adults anywhere up in here, especially when it's five nonsense people trying to imagine which Master of Disguise scene Dana Carvey was filming when 9/11 happened. And that's a wrap on 2021, everyone! Starring Brian Altano, Scott Bromley, Ryan Scott, Max Scoville, and Kristin Van De Yar.
