The LATEST SHOW on EARTH with web host Joe Hendel airs live Monday through Thursday at 11:59 PM EST to ensure that Joe's East Village cabal of wits and misfits, pundits and panderers, tunesters and tricksters can react to the very latest.

It's been a great first season of The Latest Show on Earth. We're taking a brief hiatus from our nightly live shows and will be back shortly. We look forward to bringing you wonderful new guests and features and, of course, more of the latest.
