Exclusive: Kurt Braunohler and Kristen Schaal chat up comics on Hot Tub LP
Kurt Braunohler and Kristen Schaal are the creators of Hot Tub, a weekly variety show they’ve hosted for 11 years. That’s in addition to being hilarious comics and actors in their own right, which means they’ve got a real eye—or is it ear?—for talent. Braunohler and Schaal have featured many a comedian on their show in that time, including Schaal’s Bob’s Burgers co-stars Eugene Mirman and John Roberts. It’s enough to make you wish you could join them all at the Virgil for the live show. Well, you can enjoy the next best thing later this month—no, not Bob’s Burgers on ice. It’s Hot Tub With Kurt And Kristen—Live At The Virgil, a live compilation featuring Braunohler and Schaal’s hand-picked favorites. The A.V. Club is premiering an exclusive clip from the forthcoming double LP, in which Braunohler and Schaal recognize their international impact.
