This holiday weekend proves the perfect time to catch up with the cast of this summer’s hit comedy movie, Trainwreck — they’re taking over SiriusXM, providing backstage videos from their recent stand-up comedy tour for regional charities, and offering you the chance to win a trip to attend the official World Premiere of the movie this month.
SIRIUSXM
The Trainwreck Takeover on Comedy Central Radio will showcase comedy from Schumer, Colin Quinn, Mike Birbiglia, Dave Attell, and other comedians from Trainwreck, as well as feature a special edition of SiriusXM’s “Town Hall” series. moderated by director Judd Apatow. It’ll air on SiriusXM channel 95, starting at 7 a.m. EDT July 4, through the following day. You also can listen to it via the SiriusXM App on smartphones and tablets, or online at siriusxm.com.
VIP PREMIERE CONTEST: WIN A DISAPPOINTING LAP DANCE FROM AMY SCHUMER

A $10 donation earns you one entry for the grand prize; $25 earns 3 entries and a digital thank you Apatow; $50 = 7 entries, the digital thanks from Apatow plus a shout out on Twitter from Amy Schumer.
