Jessica’s highly anticipated prank call album, The Call Girls, also featuring Rachel Feinstein, was released in 2022. Recorded virtually during the depths of quarantine, the album features characters such as old Jewish grandmothers, sexy co-eds, a conservative mother and her gay son, and more.

Jim Breuer
Jim Breuer Freedom of Laughter Tour Known as one of today’s top entertainers, comic storyteller Jim Breuer came to national attention fduring his seasons on Saturday Night Live (1995-98), a rebuilding era whose cast featured Will Ferrell, David Spade and Norm Macdonald. But don’t call him “Goat Boy” (one of his characters on SNL) or ask him to do his Joe Pesci impression. Those things are eons ago. Some even still associate him with Half Baked, a stoner comedy flick from around that time that starred Dave Chappelle and featured cameos by Willie Nelson, Snoop Dogg and Tommy Chong. Many of Breuer’s newer fans know him from the multitude of hilarious hours he’s spent as a guest on Sirius XM’s The Howard Stern Show. Howard’s hosted some of pop culture’s biggest comedy icons over the past 30 years, yet Breuer gets people telling him he’s their favorite guest ever. Breuer was also the host of Fridays with Jim Breuer Sirius XM, originally known as Breuer Unleashed. He currently hosts a podcast called The Jim Breuer Podcast, which is available on iTunes and JimBreuer.com. Looking to dine before the show? Dine at Lucy Restaurant.

Jim Jefferies
Jim Jefferies is one of the most sought after comics on the world stage after catapulting to fame just a couple of years ago, stemming partly from being attacked during a show at the Manchester Comedy Store. He has toured the world, performing on some of its biggest stages including the Edinburgh Comedy Festival- selling out the show for the past 6 years and the Montreal Just for Laughs comedy festival, which had to add shows due to sellout crowds and a remaining high demand. He recently launched a weekly podcast with fellow comedian Eddie Ifft called Talkin’ Shit with Jim and Eddie receiving record downloads in its debut week. Jefferies became a well-recognized name in the US in May 2009 receiving rave reviews for his debut one-hour special on HBO entitled Jim Jefferies: Swear to God. He recently released a Showtime special and DVD, Alcoholocaust that has left fans reeling. His painfully bold, blunt commentary captivates audiences and will leave you in stitches.
