HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS!

It's no secret that Seattle's funniest comedians inevitably flee the Northwest to pursue their dreams of becoming the next Louis CK or Paul Blart. But there's a silver lining: They always return home for the holidays, and they're just as desperate as you to escape their families for an evening of tension-busting laughter. Plus, their holiday horror stories are funnier than yours. Laughs Comedy Spot, 8:30 pm, $10, 18+.

'HAM RADIO WITH BRETT HAMIL'

Speaking of local treasures, if you're a holiday shut-in and haven't yet caught Ham Radio with Brett Hamil, the "award-eligible" sketch comedy podcast starring local comedian Brett Hamil, fucking get to it. Hamil weaves jokes and interviews with very funny people (e.g., Solomon Georgio, Owen Straw) together into an over-the-top old-timey radio production that's the perfect accompaniment to baking holiday cookies and cheerfully drinking way too damn much. www.hamradiopodcast.podbean.com.
