EARPROV.com livestreams is coming to a close!
Brian Garraty and i started livestreaming comedy shows exactly 1 year ago on May 1st. We did it to continue what Push Comedy Theater built and to keep 757 improv alive (and also to stay sharp ourselves while feeling the pain of the pandemic).
Thanks to the generous contributions and support from performers, fans, families, friends and community, Earprov and Go On Productions is proud to announce a GRAND TOTAL of $32,445.19 in donations from the past pandemic year!
– $7,336.59 to various charities
– $23,693.60 to the Push Comedy Theater
– $1,415 added to the Push Diversity Scholarship
A huge, heartfelt thanks to all the performers who helped Brian and i put on these shows every week, to Jeremy Johnson who helped get us drunk with Commonwealth Brewing Co. beers for Drunkprov, and also to the Push Comedy Theater for being behind us 100%. We hope to bring some of the wonderful programming that we piloted during the pandemic to the Push stage soon enough!
Things are slowly returning to “normal”. Push is bringing back in-person shows at The Plot and the actual theater – Check out Unusual Suspects: The Murder Mystery Tour (Friday) every 2nd Friday and Saturday at 8pm, Brad McMurran’s Good Talk: Unmasked and Uncorked show this Friday at 8pm, and check out Shakespeare in The PLOT ‘s production of Romeo & Juliet in July.
Brian and i will still be in the podcast business with Go On Productions – releasing weekly episodes of The Sexperts and How Embarrassing – The Podcast, as well as editing and producing podcasts for other artists and companies. Contact me at matthewdouglascole@gmail.com if you are interested!
Special thanks to all the groups and performers and viewers and fans who helped us laugh through these pandemic times. We couldn’t have done it without you!!!
Love,
Matt Cole

P.S. If you made this far into this post, you are a super fan, thank you! Brian and i have never made a nickel off these shows. In fact, we have been donating to Push and these organizations as well – in time and money. If you have anything left to give, please consider throwing us a few bucks via Venmo: @EARPROV or paypal.me/goonpodcasts . We will use the money to pay our streaming service bills and to continue producing amazing content! Thanks
