The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

It’s Wednesday and you know what that means: a new episode of my new comedy web series Shaky Ground!

You can watch this new episode by clicking right here. Make sure to subscribe to the channel!

In this sketch you’ll meet Stuart, a guy who is trying to make extra money by renting out the tent he lives in on SleepAround. He’s duped Luna, a tourist visiting San Francisco, into thinking she’s renting the Victorian next door. Hilarity ensues.

Shaky Ground is comedy web series lampooning modern day San Francisco. New sketches each week! Whether highlighting the process of interviewing crazy new roommates, or making fun of clueless tech executives looking to “disrupt” industries, Shaky Ground hilariously takes aim at all the that make living in the Bay Area so ridiculous. Hopefully no one goes unscathed.
