Do you suffer from an ache that ails you or a maddening malady? Do you feel like a chunk of rotting butcher's meat that's been ripped apart in the sweltering heat of the day by hungry dogs?

Then look no further than the miracle cure we have for you. Two brothers performing sketch comedy: it will make you laugh, make you cry, put a pep in your step and some fuel in your mule.

We guarantee to cure baldness, myopia and night terrors*.

Don't believe us? Well, listen to these real life testimonies:
"This show cured my brain disease!" Abraham.
"These sketches made me grow 12 inches!" Maude.
"My children love me again..." Amos.
