It&#8217;s not a matter of poor ticket sales, either, since some of the shows are still several weeks away and could in theory sell out between now and then.<\/p>\n<p>These comedians tell the &#8220;wrong&#8221; jokes. There&#8217;s no other explanation.<\/p>\n<p>Metzger is a show business veteran, an <a href=\"https:\/\/kurtmetzgercomedy.com\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">Emmy-winning writer<\/a> with credits including &#8220;Inside Amy Schumer&#8221; and &#8220;Chappelle&#8217;s Show.&#8221; His work alongside Dore routinely deconstructs media narratives on the Left, Center and Right.<\/p>\n<p>Florentine also has decades in stand-up comedy and provided voices for Comedy Central&#8217;s &#8220;Crank Yankers&#8221; program. That gig included voicing Special Ed, a mentally challenged puppet that was memory holed by Comedy Central&#8217;s YouTube channel.<\/p>\n<p>Smith is a Libertarian comedian and host of the &#8220;Part of the Problem&#8221; podcast. He&#8217;s graced such &#8220;problematic&#8221; podcasts as &#8220;The Joe Rogan Experience&#8221; and &#8220;Tim Pool IRL.&#8221; Gomez, part of the &#8220;Legion of Skanks,&#8221; podcast, is the founder of the GaS Digital podcast network. He&#8217;s arguably the most irreverent of the quartet.<\/p>\n<p>Gomez took the cancellation in stride, noting it&#8217;s hardly the only comedy club that refuses to book him.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Yes on today\u2019sReal Ass Podcast. But to be fair it\u2019s their right to book who they want to book. They weren\u2019t particularly shitty about it. I\u2019ll find another venue. I would not have chosen to make a stink about this.
