The Matthew Filipowicz Show

Hey, everyone!  We’re super excited that our fifth ever Matthew Filipowicz Bad-Ass Members Only Episode is now available!  However, as “Members Only” implies, it is for Bad-Ass Members Only.  How do you become a member?  Simple, just head over to our members page and sign up.

As always, our bonus episodes give you a chance to get to know our amazing writer/performers better as we do our version of the McLaughlin Group, which we’ve dubbed the Filipowicz Forum.  This month’s forum was recorded live at the Irish Oak bar in Chicago, IL immediately following Barack Obama’s speech at Drinking Liberally’s State of the Union watch party.

This month’s forum features writer/performers Bob Rok, Tim Grimes, and stand up comedian James Fritz.  And without a doubt, this is the rowdiest, drunkest forum we’ve done to date.

So become a member today!  Not only do you get the warm fuzzy feeling of supporting independent progressive media and our monthly bonus episodes, but you’ll also receive other… perks (wink, wink, nudge, nudge).  Also, once we reach 100 members, we will go to three shows a week!

However, if you can’t afford to become a member, if you give a one time donation, you’ll get access to that month’s bonus episode!

So what are you waiting for?  Become a member today!

Plus we’ll be talking to an education specialist who’s working on preparing pre-schoolers for a life in prison.
