Coastal Idiots

Katherine Blanford, Shane Torres

Booking Overview

A weekly comedy interview show centered on absurd personal stories, stand-up life, performance experiences, and comedic games, typically featuring fellow comedians and comedy performers from the hosts’ professional circle. Agencies could credibly pitch stand-up comedians, comedy writers, alternative-comedy artists, and performers with a distinctive stage persona or current special; booking difficulty is medium because the show attracts established comedy guests but also appears relationship-driven.
