Back in 2022 Big Grande went on tour and brought a camera.

Big Grande has been bringing their brand of rapid, honest, and wild live shows to sold-out crowds around the country — hell, the continent — for over a decade. Now they’re hopping onto the UCB stage for a DCM26 show that’ll leave you laughing (hopefully) and them sweating (definitely). Their podcast, The Teachers Lounge, gained a fervent following on The Earwolf Network before they began selling it directly to fans. Find it — along with their four-episode live improvised comedy special, sketches, animated content, merch, and more — at biggrandewebsite.com. Individually, you’ve seen them on The Other Two, Brooklyn 99, Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin, Superstore, Comedy Bang Bang, Son of Zorn, Bless the Harts, Playing House, and Last Call with Carson Daly — as well as behind the camera on Lights Out with David Spade and Netflix: After Party. Filmed live at the 2026 Del Close Marathon.

Fresh out of a long term, serious breakup, Lane Woods chooses to work through (read as: distract himself from) his feelings by making a documentary about his attempts to get back out there and find a new love. With the help of his younger brother, Colin, Lane films himself as he goes on countless dates, hoping to catch those first sparks of love on film, instead he ends up documenting something much closer to reality.

In the future, a man meets someone in a cafe that changes his perspective on life, love, and robots.

An out-of-work LA actress needs a gift for a baby shower. An insane Las Vegas gambler needs a weird candy. What they find is each other.

A camping trip puts a platonic friendship to the test. “Mountain Friends,” directed by Jon Mackey, is an intentionally stilted comedy that follows two friends into the Angeles Forest and one man into a flailing attempt to become more than friends.
