Debuting at the Largo nightclub in 2002 under the name The Paul F. Tompkins Show, the program ended its long and only slightly intermittent run in 2014. Now it returns to Los Angeles in a new location, the spectacular Lodge Room in Highland Park. Guests are always a surprise and surprises are guaranteed.
