That was Brian’s reaction when we told him that Emo Philips would be our guest for the May 18th Revival!!! Then he peed…then he cried…then he punched Sean while screaming Emo’s name over and over.
It was a confusing day but we’re past that now. If you’ve seen Emo in your life you can understand Brian’s excitement.
If you haven’t…WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?
Come check out Emo Phillips in the Dr. God Revival on 5/18 at 10:30pm @ iO West.
Dr. God is back at iOWest this Saturday and we're happy to share the stage again with the fun-ass crew of SIMMERCON!!!!
Justin is still living it up in Italy for his honeymoon. Will we miss him? Yes. Will we have special guest sit-ins? Maybe. Will you be entertained? WORD.
Dr. God has had a number of exciting and unique guests over the years. Actors, musicians, authors, comedians… any and all have come out to share their stories and honor us with their awesomeness.
Our guest this month, however, can KICK EVERY ONE OF THEIR ASSES!*
That’s right!!! Joining us for our March 16th Revival will be a WWE superstar and one of the most astonishing physical specimens in all of professional wrestling, JOHN MORRISON!
John is a tag team mixture of comedy and general bad-assery. This is a show you definitely do NOT want to miss!
Dr. God cordially invites you to join us in celebrating BOC's 10 Year Anniversary!
Dr. God has lined up a very special Revivalist in Paul Valliancourt (BOC's Level 1 teacher and member of Beer Shark Mice) as well as special guest players in Miles Stroth, John Conroy and Jeff Hawkins.
Dr. God hits the stage with our brethren in KIND STRANGERS for the pairing that should be airing on the invisible waves. As Park would say, "We are the action. They are the juice."
This is the only chance you will get to see Dr. God on the iOWest stage this month. Be on the lookout for a VERY special "Valentine's Day Surprise Show" announcement soon!
You might recognize Parvesh from his role on NBC's OUTSOURCED and Chris from his series of Madden commercials. Currently, they can both be seen in the hilarious web series The Book Club.
Dr. God has known these guys for years and consider them part of our extended family. This promises to be one of our best shows yet!
The Dr. God Revival is back and this time we've brought long time friend and current star of Fox's Ben and Kate, Echo Kellum!
Aside from being on one of the hottest new sitcoms on television, Echo can be seen on the iOWest stage with Cherry on Monday nights and on your television every night including Mondays in every commercial known to man. The dude books a LOT.
Echo is going to tell some stories for us, we're gonna make 'em funny, Echo will probably jump in and play, you'll laugh and enjoy yourselves. Everyone wins.
Just in time for the Halloween season, the former lead singer of the band named after everyone's favorite scary clown is gracing the iOWest stage with his presence to tell some stories from his amazingly cool life. From tales of being on the road to the pressures of raising a family, Jim is sure to give the Godders plenty of material to work with as we weave our comedy magic.
Dr. God is extremely excited to welcome back our friend Derek Miller for the Revival and this time he's bringing his friend and cast mate, Harold Perrineau!
Dr. God Revival returns with our good friends Michael Eisenstein and John Conroy! These two have been friends for nearly 20 years so you know they have stories.
"USA Mike" is a record producer in Los Angeles and currently co-leads the The Reigning Monarchswith comedian-author Greg Behrendt. His music was also the soundtrack to our college years as a member of the beloved band Letters To Cleo.
John Conroy you may remember from past Revivals and from many, many Dr. God Happy Hours.
This summer, MTV’s hit show AWKWARD is back and better than ever. In honor of that, Dr God has invited back one of our favorite guests BRETT DAVERN for his 2nd Revival… and he’s bringing with him his onscreen rival (but real life good buddy) BEAU MIRCHOFF!
That’s right… whether you’re Team Matty, Team Jake, or Team Principal Cox (Dr. God’s Neil Garguilo), Dr God is extremely excited for this AWKWARD male three-way! Wait… that sounds bad. Dr God is excited for… oh, screw it, just come check out Brett and Beau because they’re great dudes and funny fellows.
Much to the chagrin of a lot of Brett and Beau’s fan base, this show is 21 and over. But trust us, it’s better this way.
Matthew Lillard rejoins Dr. God for the 10th Annual LA Improv Festival!
Come join us for the Dr. God Revival as Matt returns from his whirlwind tour of promoting his directorial debut, FAT KID RULES THE WORLD. Coming off of the great success of THE DESCENDANTS, you can see Matt next on the big screen in TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE with Clint Eastwood!
Matt has done the LA Improv Comedy Festival with us before and it is ALWAYS a great show. Get your tickets now as this show WILL SELL OUT!
This is our LAST SHOW in June, so if you want to see Dr. God anytime soon, this is your chance.
Trade mags, newspapers, the Twitterverse, Blogosphere and Facebookton all agree that LAUREN LAPKUS is a hilarious actress and rapidly rising star… and Dr. God couldn’t agree more!!!
We’re very excited to have one of the most enjoyable talents in comedy and star of NBC’s ARE YOU THERE, CHELSEA as our May Revivalist. Honestly, if you’ve never seen Lauren onstage, you might as well have never inhaled oxygen, eaten food, or gone to the bathroom. This show is just that imperative to your survival.
And as an added bonus, the man that Neil Garguilo’s Sweatpants Fashion Magazine called “a man of many hats…literally”, Brian James O’Connell’s Tat Fancy knows as “a quirky huckster with overwhelming sexual energy,” and Sean Cowhig’s, uh, Post-It note named “Tallest Man in This Room…March 13, 2010”, Mr. CHRIS ALVARADO, will be sitting in as well!
That’s right – it’s a brand-new Dr God Revival with Guest Revivalist Lauren Lapkus on Saturday, May 19th at 10:30pm on the iOWest Mainstage. There will be FUN. Don’t miss it!

Cower, comedy and horror lovers… it’s time for DR. GOD’S ST. PADDY’S DAY SCARE-A-BRATION!
Once a year, St. Patrick summons all of his Ghoul and Demon minions to the Earth’s surface for a night of debauchery and mischief in a holiday that has become perplexingly misunderstood as some sort of drinking fest. Weird.
To get the scariest day of the year back on track, Dr. God is excited to welcome a guest that the Goblin Lord St. Patrick would be proud to call friend… DEREK MEARS!
You may know Derek better as JASON VOORHEES from FRIDAY THE 13th or the PREDATOR from the movie PREDATORS, and we’ll be catching Derek fresh from the debut of his new film THE AGGRESSION SCALE at the SXSW Film Festival.
Afterwards, the iOWest Main Stage will be converted into a full-on dance party featuring Dr. God and iOWest's Official DJ, DJ Conroy!!!
Come check it out and get down… or St. Patrick will send his Leprechaun hell-beasts riding on a rainbow of blood for you!!!
NEXT REVIVAL: Saturday, April 28th with Mary Birdsong (Reno 911, The Descendants)
