Old Fashioned This two person sketch show brings you into the WOFX radio station headquarters. Home to such shows as "The News" and "Guac Talk", the only all guacamole call-in talk show in the country, WOFX is in desperate need of funds. Nick Ramirez and Katie Sicking become a cast of 100 characters- all of whom need your support to keep public radio on the air. Directed by Brandon Bassham.
Unsuspectingly Sponsored By is a comedy show about advertising, featuring comedians who happen to work on said advertisements at their "professional jobs." In the show we put the client on stage, and throughout we constantly "pitch" new concepts and campaigns. These take the form of live sketch, improvisation, stand-up monologues, and most importantly-fully produced video commercials / sketches. Like SNL style commercials, but for one very real company, who is "unsuspectingly" sponsoring the night. Its non-consensual advertising. Each show features a giveaway of the product sponsoring
