We’re here, we’re queer, and this Thursday—we’re sellin’ beer!


If you’re in Brooklyn, New York this Thursday, June 5 stop by the historic Nitehawk Cinema in Williamsburg and see Museum of Home Video’s Bret Berg and yours truly as we freak out the Kevin Geeks Out audience with classic queer commercials from the anals, er, annals of television history!

From the Kevin Geeks Out website:

Comedian Kevin Maher hosts a 90-minute look at Advertising, in the comedy-variety show that dares to ask the question “Can you hear me now?”

The stunning program will cover America’s advertising landscape, including:
Radio jingles….Product placement….Commercial catchphrases….Sponsor messages “for her”….Advertising in a conflict zone….Brand activations….LGBT+ representation in TV commercials….Banned ads….and more!  

See why SyFy called Kevin “an insane genius” in the series DailyGrindhouse.com described as “TED Talks for Midnight Movies.” Join us for this one-night-only special event.
Guests include:

Bret Berg (curator-host, Museum of Home Video)

Sean Carnage (filmmaker, 40 Bands, 80 Minutes)

Amber Dextrous (pop-culture scholar and Friend of KGO)

Julie Kling (writer, tired as f*ck parent)

Val Parker (stand-up comic, co-host “Ask a F*ckboy”)

Jon Schnitzer (comedian, JUST THE TIP)

Steve Young (Letterman/Simpsons writer, musician, performer)

And don’t miss our custom 30-minute pre-show video that plays as soon as the house opens. Curated by
Tom Silvestro.

Here’s a trailer for our Queer Commercials, which we can bring to your organization:
