Thanksgiving-themed, erotica stories, inspired by the audience's imagination! It's a Mad Libs feast where the audience add their own steamy answers for these XXX rated stories. Five comedians will do 7 min. And then we'll read audience answers and comedians will choose their favorite to include in the erotica.

Virginia Jones is a talented standup who has been on Portlandia, CNN’s History of Comedy, and an Australian tap dance infomercial. Virginia has over 20K followers on TikTok, whom she loves more than her family. Most recently, she has opened for Maria Bamford at the newly renovated Pasadena Ice House, performed for sold out shows at the 20th San Francisco Sketchfest, and she also had a vegan ice cream sandwich she really liked, with chocolate chip cookies.

She has opened for some of her heroes like Jackie Kashian, Laurie Kilmartin, and Eddie Pepitone, and not just the thing where she happens to appear before them on a showcase, but like, they asked her to open a show for them and then she did it and was amazing and then they said good job and she said thank you and then they usually go eat something.

She’s also a talented podcaster, hosting the popular show “My Sister’s A Therapist” with her sister, LMFT therapist Laura Ryan.

Hilarious, and the best sort of mess, Portland-based comedian MX. DAHLIA BELLE has been compared to a Swiss Army knife - different tools to extract sharpness, softness, vulnerability, hope, and wicked wit. She's been declared one of "11 Trans Comedians... Funnier Than Dave Chappelle" by Out Magazine and has written for Cosmopolitan Magazine, The Guardian, The Stranger, and Portland Mercury. She has been a repeat guest on NPR, CBC, XRAY FM, and Portland Radio Project (PRP). Her live performances have included NW Black Comedy Festival, Upper Left Comedy Festival, Mutiny Radio, and an awkward conversation with John Waters and Piers Morgan. You can catch Dahlia in the popular Netflix special Hannah Gadsby’s ‘Gender Agenda’ or in a comedy club near you!

Public access legend Ben Harkins is a Portland based comic. His unsweetened perspective and deadpan delivery have made him an audience favorite throughout the PNW. His irreverent material attacks everything from the cost of groceries to the extinction of species. Harkins won the Portland's Funniest person contest at Helium and was voted #1 in Willamette Weeks Funniest Five. He is a regular host at Helium and has performed in the Bridgetown, SF Sketchfest and Savage Henry Comedy festivals, among others. Harkins has opened for many pros including Paulie Shore, Joe List, Matt Braunger and Tik-Toks Pearlmania 5000. He hosts Chill N Fill Comedy every Thursday 8pm. He also directed and produced a hit Soap Opera called Intrigue- Public Access Soap Opera.

Dr. Holly is a Philly-based, award-winning screenwriter, actor and improviser. During the day, she's a therapist. At night, she wears a cape saving lives through telling jokes on stage. Her comedy is smart, sassy and always politically incorrect, speaking on everything from hot-button social issues to her being a Black hockey mom. Her credits include Don't Tell Comedy and Detroit House of Comedy.

No yeah he’s funny

Your host Rachelle Cochran, describes her comedy style as unique, silly, and loud. Think of her as the silly lesbian next door who also happened to open for Cameron Esposito one time. She was recently recognized by her Doordash driver as “that one who didn’t do so bad” at Portland’s Funniest. Tell no one but she was also Vancouver’s 4th Funniest person and she doesn’t even live in Vancouver. Scandalous.
