About this listen

Pac Lens Comedy’s Opening Act returns with another live, no-filter stand-up showcase featuring a stacked lineup of comics from the LA/OC scene.

This episode leans darker, louder, and more unhinged: pulling comedy out of politics, family trauma, grief, sex, culture clashes, and the kind of intrusive thoughts that only belong onstage. From raw confessionals to full-blown absurdity, the night keeps swinging with uncut room energy and zero censorship.

– Stand-up showcase with multiple comics

– Themes: politics, family, grief, relationships, sex, identity, culture, aging, and modern life

– Notable elements: crowd tension, long-form storytelling, generational riffs, and hard pivots into absurdity

– Live audience reactions, big swings, and unfiltered room energy
