“Guys, we're going to Tucci's.

Even though the last dinner was epic, next-level unreal, and I couldn't be more grateful to Elementary for having us, the $70 ticket price wasn't in the budget for a lot of us—and I didn't love that. The economy isn’t in the best spot, and it feels like this summer has been the season of "getting let go" for so many, including myself. That’s why I wanted to keep it simple and affordable this time.

Tucci's is the perfect spot when you're craving something delicious without spending too much. It's all about the basics—just chips and sandwiches—but made with the freshest ingredients and so much care. It's my go-to, and maybe it's about to become yours. I can't wait to enjoy a meal there with you all!

The exact plan is still up in the air—we might need to call and place our orders in advance and then take the food somewhere else depending on how many people sign up. I’ll keep you posted. For now, just know we're eating at Tucci's... because that's exactly what I need for my SOUL right now! :)”

Second Chance Comedy: A Standup Comedy Show about Addiction

From their event page,

*Sober Curious Event

Who says sobriety has to be boring?

Join us for a groundbreaking event that shares the real, raw, and funny side of overcoming addiction. This isn't just another comedy show—it's a one-of-a-kind experience that brings laughter to the forefront of recovery. With 20% of all ticket sales directly benefiting Sobriety House—a beacon of hope for those embarking on their journey to sobriety—you'll be supporting a great cause while enjoying a night of unforgettable comedy.

Who is this show for?

• Anyone who has struggled with addiction and wants to laugh about it.

• Anyone affected by addiction from a friend or loved one.

• Anyone who wants a different perspective on addiction.

• Anyone who appreciates authentic humor that sheds light on darker topics.

What attendees are saying:

“The show exceeded my expectations in every way! I honestly felt that each comedian told a beautiful wonderful story using comedy. Every person that was there was absolutely perfect. I plan on going again, definitely.” - Dianna M.

“I liked the balance between the seriousness of addiction and the humor. I loved this show and plan on coming again! Thank you all for addressing addiction and removing the shame around it.” - Julie T.

“I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed this show! To address a dark and painful topic with humor and compassion - such a gift! Kudos to all the comedians willing to share their experiences in such a creative way. I can't wait for the next show!” - Kerry H.

This unique stand-up comedy show features a lineup of talented comedians who have been directly or indirectly impacted by addiction, offering their hilarious takes on the challenges and triumphs of recovery. Our stellar lineup includes Deb Lastowka, Cody Ullrich, Tara Check, and Headliner Von Sprecken. Produced and Hosted by Joe Huisman.

Von Sprecken is a compelling comedian with a mission: to bring laughter and light to the world of mental health. With over a decade of experience in the recovery community, Von's journey through addiction and mental health challenges has shaped his unique comedic voice. He's seen it all—as a patient, a family member, and a front-line healthcare worker—and now, he's turning his experiences into powerful performances that educate and entertain.

Starting his comedy career in Denver in 2017, Von quickly made a name for himself at top venues like Comedy Works. His sharp wit and heartfelt humor won him the Pop Culture Con Tournament of Laughs in 2019. Today, Von tours nationally, using his platform to break down stigmas and connect with audiences through the healing power of comedy.

Please note: Alcohol is available at this event to ensure a supportive and inclusive environment for all attendees.

Second Chance Comedy isn't just a comedy show; it's a trailblazing celebration of resilience, recovery, and the universal healing power of laughter. No one else is doing a show like this—bringing the raw realities of addiction into the light with humor and honesty. Whether you've been touched by addiction or simply love great comedy that tackles tough topics, this event promises an unforgettable night of hilarity and heart.

Come for the laughs, stay for the cause, and support a great mission while you're at it. Let's break the stigma of addiction together—one joke at a time.

Doors open at 6:00 PM, show starts at 7:00 PM.

If you are not able to attend but would still like to donate to Sobriety House, you can do so by selecting "Get Tickets" and then choosing the option to 'Donate to Sobriety House.' 100% of donations will be passed on to the charity.”
