John Hodgman graciously asked friends Patrick Borelli and David Rees to join him at the 215 Festival. What ensued can best be described as an ass-kicking event.

Patrick, Doug and Louis invited all the folks from the book to take the stage.

This man has entered another dimension. You can’t hate on Priest!!!

The ever-professional announcer introduces the evening’s first performer, Frank Garr

Susyn performs her politically-themed monologue.

Susyn finishes her monologue. Ray leaves Susyn’s high-five attempt hanging

Louis sort of stole the show. Who am I kidding? He TOTALLY stole the show!

Jeff Performs his one-man song/poem.

This is where he delivered his classic line, “I’m made the way you want me.” Patrick pointed out that Louis seemed to be getting his best lines from Burger King commercials.

These two guys were hilarious in their improv scene. They also favor listing an initial in their full name.

Leeny came from Massachusetts.That’s Patrick’s home state!

Louis is too cool for Patrick and Doug in his glasses.

They were reenacting the famous, “The Challenge” aka Master of My Domain episode.

The wave gets caught in some sort of spastic seizure by Louis.

Louis even tried standup. He told a joke in Greek. Do I even have to tell you that it killed? OK. It killed.

Sybil was as cute as a button!

Yenz and Sybil were too funny. They had the crowd roaring.

I believe this is when she yelled, “Oh yeah! RIGHT THERE!”

Her ending shocked a few and hailed a good laugh.

Over 30 of the folks from the book strutted down the red carpet.

Patrick and Doug hold up the two winners of the night: Holy Headshot! and Loudovikos Hertz!

“YOU WANT IT!? YOU GOT IT!!”
