NEW SHOW ALERT! 😍

Well we know what you're watching this evening and again and again over the weekend.

Enjoy! 🔥

Keep your eyes peeled this evening folks 👀😆

Hello hello and happy Monday, NextUppers!

How are you doing tonight? I'm sure we could all use a laugh or two this week, which is why we’ve got two familiar favourites coming up (love that for us). 😍

Quick heads-up though: the PDA Society have decided to cancel their comedy fundraising event. It was meant to be filmed tomorrow and livestreamed on Wednesday, so we’re properly gutted, especially because it was for such a good cause. Sadly it’s totally out of our hands.

Fingers crossed they bring it back later in the year, and when they do, we’ll be there cheering them on and supporting it properly.

Have an awesome week guys!

P.S. New show on Thursday! Here's a clue to the title: Pardon me, are you Aaron Burr, sir? 👀

Quick app update: Display Names are here 🎉

You can now choose how your name shows up in the community, so you’re not stuck using your full name if you’d rather not. Pick a nickname or handle that feels like you. It’s a simple one, but it gives you more control over your privacy and makes it easier to jump into chats (even if you’re usually more of a lurker).

To set yours up:

1. Log in to the website

2. Click your avatar (top right) to open the User Dashboard

3. Head to the Profile tab

4. Update anything you want other members to see:

   • Profile Photo → click Change

   • Display Name → choose what shows publicly

   • Location → pick your city from the dropdown

If you’ve been meaning to get involved but felt a bit hesitant, this is a lovely low-pressure first step. 🫶

Something to lighten the mood. Based on a true story:

Hi gang

Unfortunately, we've just heard from Angel Comedy that they cannot proceed with tonight's livestream due to an act that cannot be streamed.

We know how frustrating this is but sadly it is outside of our control, and the line-up has only recently changed to include this act. 

Thank you for understanding, and apologies again for those that have planned around this.

Looking for stand-up comedy movies (modern recs, please)!

Hey everyone. I watched Is This Thing On? (Bradley Cooper) yesterday and absolutely loved it. Now I’m hunting for more films that focus on stand-up comedy. So far I’ve already seen Is This Thing On? and Funny People. What else would you recommend? Ideally newer titles if possible.
