About this Event

Join the Banana Boys (Kurt Braunohler and Scotty Landes) as they host a live recording that’s more like a party than a podcast. You’re guaranteed some strange news, lots of crazy stories, and one adorable fan guy named Charlie Fromage. Come in your favorite Potassium-inspired outfit and hang with the BBoys.

Kurt Braunohler is a comedian, writer, and actor who once hired a skywriter to write “HOW DO I LAND?” over Los Angeles.

In film, Kurt appears in the Oscar-nominated The Big Sick, Lionsgate’s Long Shot, Zach Cregger’s horror hit, Barbarian, and alongside Michelle Pfeiffer in Oh. What. Fun. On television he has appeared in Bob’s Burgers, The Good Place, Murderville, Black Monday, Lady Dynamite, American Housewife, and many others. His stand-up has been featured on The Tonight Show, Late Night with Seth Meyers, Conan, The Late Late Show with James Corden, and—more times than anyone can reasonably explain—After Midnight. He’s written for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and worked as an on-set writer for Charlize Theron, Seth Rogen, Holly Hunter, Kumail Nanjiani, Ray Romano, and others. Kurt’s third comedy special, Perfectly Stupid, was praised by The New York Times for doing “…what fresh comedy can—make you see things that were always there but never noticed.”
He has performed stand-up around the world, taught improv for decades, and once jet-skied from Chicago to New Orleans for charity, which—like most of his work—started as a ridiculous idea and turned into something unexpectedly meaningful.
“A charismatic comedian with a flair for the absurd.” – New York Times

“Kurt Braunohler is the closest thing we have to a real-life Willy Wonka.” – Vice

“Not only a singular talent, but an inimitable spirit.” – LA Weekly

Scotty "Banana Boy #2" Landes is a screenwriter from Reisterstown, Maryland. He stole an Anna Nicole Smith Playboy from Walden Books in 1995 and has never looked back. As the shorter Bananas host, Scotty looks up to Kurt and trusts him to defend him physically AND emotionally. He lives in Los Angeles and enjoys body surfing.
