Too Beautiful to Live

Too Beautiful To Live, the Podcast that smirkingly boasts having “tens of listeners,” opens up the show to 350 seats in Columbia City Theater this weekend. Once a KIRO evening talk show, the three personalities on TBTL don’t really talk news, sports or music. They spend their hour musing on things like Amanda Bynes’ Twitter habits, an awkward HR diversity workshop, and whether human poop or dog poop is grosser. No surprise at least one of those gags has also appeared on “The Office.” TBTL is like a sitcom with the laugh track turned off. For two Summer Slam live tapings, the Long Winters (July 9, which is already sold out) and Blue Scholars (July 10) will play, followed by a karaoke after-party. MARY PAULINE DIAZ
