Customer Service

David Crowe is a really talented stand-up comedian.
I love to play him on the show, he has what it takes.
Low on snark but his incredulity makes up for it.
Smart as well, highly educated and his performances
are better for it.
He happily skewers CS for our enjoyment…


Comedy 101 Radio 2.27.20

Lots to offer this week.
Food block…Tommy Ryman starts with
spoofing his poor wife on border crime.
Life in prison, doing hard time for a snack chip.
Sounds reasonable.
A very loose cover of a Percy French classic by
The Shower Room Squad.
An environmental block…old people getting some
much deserved criticism on this one.
That’s what they get for hogging the air.
Crime block…from different perspectives.
And a “You’ll never be right no matter what you do!”
block that shines the light on the human condition.
Lewis Black unloads like only he can.
A dark one from TWKUK.
Greg Giraldo kicks buttock.
Daniel Tosh still the best.
Onward and upwards…

Quicksand

A superb little slice from the 1974 Mel Brooks classic!
Blazing Saddles was iconic when it first came out,
nothing quite like it before or since.
Filled with scenes that, for various reasons, could
never be created today.
Written by Mel Brooks, with input from Richard Prior
and Gene Wilder, this flick has a cult following like no other.
Cleavon Little and Charles McGregor, as Bart and Charlie,
are in a bit of a bind, a little ingenuity and some deft
shovel work and all is fine once again.
Kinda.
That line at the end makes me laugh out loud every time…
