Written and performed by Brian Finkelstein 

On his 39th birthday Brian Finkelstein went on strike for the third time - the American Writers' Strike of 2007 that shut down television shows and film productions, costing the Los Angeles community 2.5 billion dollars.

For months he walked around in circles and ate lunches delivered to him by Jay Leno in a vintage convertible worth more money than Brian's ever earned.

Three Strikes is the story of these labour disputes as they compare to the bomb-throwing anarchist at the Haymarket Massacre of 1886.

The comparison is ridiculous.

One of the hosts of The Moth LA and Emmy Award-nominated writer for his work on Ellen, Brian’s previous solo shows have been chosen “Best in Comedy” by Time Out New York and called a “must-see” by the New York Press and Metro newspapers.

Three Strikes is a Barefaced Exclusive for Summer Nights.

WARNING: Contains coarse language.
