Forget Taxes and Come Laugh!

The next "Sideshow Goshko" is on Wednesday, April 15th...aka Tax Day! So, if you're fed up with W2's, write-off's, and social security numbers, come relax with us in a rather stylish comedy basement, grab a drink, and hear hilarious stories from:

• John Knefel (Huffington Post)
  

• Kambri Crews (lovedaddy.org, The Moth, Speakeasy)

Holy Sh*t! Germans made me into a cartoon!

So, a friend of mine who runs the New York Reality TV School hired me quite a while ago to work with them at one of their workshops. It just so happened that there was a picture of me performing there that ran on msnbc.com. WELL...that picture has now, somehow, found it's way to Germany and been "cartoon-ized!" I'm a cartoon!

CARTOON:



Woo Hoo!

Leslie as a German cartoon!


For all I know, they could be saying we're all pieces of sh*t. But what do I care?...I'm a freakin' cartoon!
