LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2, 2016  -- Upright Citizens Brigade co-founder, and improv comedian Matt Besser's new comedy special, Besser Breaks The Record, made its debut January 7, 2016 along with the launch of NBC's new subscription channel, Seeso. Comedy Dynamics will release record of the special February 5, 2016.
 
Filmed live at the UCB Theater in Hollywood, Matt Besser breaks the mold of an average stand-up comedy special. His improv skills don't disappoint as he brings a variety of characters with him to the stage along with his collection of angry Letters to the Editor (of which he reads and sings aloud). Besser fills his special full of theatrical surprises, which are all just the cherry on top of his natural comedic talent. 

"Matt Besser is one of the founders of the current and next generation of comedy creators," Comedy Dynamics President, Brian Volk-Weiss, says. "To be working on a show like this is to be part of the kind of ground-breaking comedy history we embrace." 

Debuting January 2016 on Seeso, is The UCB Show with Matt Besser, Amy Poehler, Matt Walsh, and Ian Roberts. Besser also appears in the web series parody, The Hotwives of Orlando, streaming on Hulu now. He is best known for creating and writing the TV Movie This Show Will Get You High (2010), the TV Series short Myspace Tom (2007), and for being the star/founding member of the 1998 TV series Upright Citizens Brigade (UCB) alongside Poehler, Walsh, and Roberts. UCB opened a comedy theater and improv school operating in both New York City and Los Angeles. He created and starred in a number of TV series including Crossballs and The Very Funny Show for TBS.com. More recently, he wrote and co-directed his first film musical, Freak Dance, based on a long-running UCB show. Currently, he hosts a weekly-improvised comedy podcast called improv4humans on the Earwolf podcasting network. Besser and the UCB still perform several times a week at the Los Angeles Theater, most notably in the world-famous show ASSSSCAT 3000 every Sunday night.
Comedy Dynamics is the largest independent comedy production and distribution company in North America, producing the highly-anticipated new series on History, Join Or Die with Craig Ferguson, and working with a wide-range of established and emerging comedic talent including Kevin Hart, Louis C.K., Aziz Ansari, Jim Gaffigan, Bill Burr, Katt Williams and many more.

Winans, Sr. has wed his long time girlfriend Deneen R. Carter. Carter is a 57-year-old physical therapist and minister at Perfecting Church in Detroit, founded by Winans. Little is known about the bride publicly. The gospel legend introduced the now Mrs. Winans as his fiance to the congregants of Perfecting in October of 2021. The couple had been in a relationship for 15 years. Pastor Winans was previously married to fellow gospel singer Vicki Winans (with whom he has two sons) for 16 years before they divorced in 1995. Held at the Colony Club in Detroit, MI, on April 22, the wedding was officiated by fellow COGIC Bishop Darrell Hines. "Let their lives be full of joy as they live according to your word," he prayed.

The lesser known scandalous life of Frederick Douglass

buzzz worthy. . . By Mona Austin Much of what the average American knows about Frederick Douglass lies in the pages of "The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave."  His memory has lived on through the annals of history as a heroic abolitionist. A recent article revered Douglass  as "A king among men."  Note to The Atlantic writer who wrote those words in the article  Memo to the White House on the Contributions of Frederick Douglass  --  applying t hat very Biblical reference to Douglass is an overstatement.  The article was a response  to President Donald Trump saying at a White House "Listening Session " on Black History Month that   Douglass is  “an example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more, I notice.”  The Atlantic article was intended to show Mr.Trump and others who may be ignorant of his significance that Douglass was not on the sidelines of Bl...
