Jimmy Pardo

9pm. $10 general admission. $15 reserved.

Chicago native comedian Jimmy Pardo makes Mayne Stage debut one night only. Pardo most recently is the warm up act for Conan and has appeared in viral videos and tv episodes for Team Coco. Pardo's raucous-but-smart weekly podcast, "Never Not Funny," has revolutionized the way comedians use the Internet to connect with their audiences. It's the No. 2 paid podcast hosted by a comedian, after Ricky Gervais'. Hailed as "The Number 1 Relatively Obscure Thing You Need to be Paying Attention To" by GQ Magazine in 2010, the podcast has featured guests Conan O'Brien, Adam Carolla, Kevin Pollack, and Sarah Silverman.
