The Comedy Button: Episode 550 -- THE GRAND FINALE!

Fri, 03 Mar 2023 17:00:00 +0000

BRAP BRAP! What's going on, Internet? Oh boy, do we have a story -- it's about a nonsense podcast that has run for nearly the length of a full U.S. primary education (with, come to think of it, pretty equivalent educational standards and pay for the teachers).

But now, it is the proverbial graduation ceremony, which means it's time to get day-drunk on hobo liquor one last time with your favorite goofball hosts in this three-hour spectacular. Before we put the button back in cold storage, we get up to the usual stupid shenanigans, reflect on the last 11.5 years, answer a few final listener questions, and hear from our significant others (and yes, someone cries). From the entire Comedy Button cast to everyone who has supported this silly endeavor of ours: Thank you.

Starring Brian Altano, Scott Bromley, Anthony Gallegos, Ryan Scott, Max Scoville, and Kristin Van De Yar, with special appearances from Theresa Altano, Stacey Bromley, and Jenn Scoville.

A Very Special Comedy Button Message: THE END IS NEIGH!

Fri, 17 Feb 2023 07:15:00 +0000

Gadzooks! After more than 11 years of this nonsense horseplay, we're finally putting the ol' button back under the protective glass and pretending to go about our lives as well-respected adults who have it all figured out.

Yes, the Comedy Button is coming to a close with our final episode, coming to you at the end of February/beginning of March/something like that. We've got all the details right here in this mini-episode, so if you don't want to go through life confused and bewildered about why your usual Friday podcast stopped appearing on the Zune Marketplace or wherever these things go now, give it a listen!

Sincerely from your pals, Brian Altano, Scott Bromley, Ryan Scott, Max Scoville, and Kristin Van De Yar.
