Snuggies

This early piece by Daniel Tosh shows what he can do on the stage.
I consider him to be one of the best stand-up comedians to ever
grace an audience.
His shtick is irreverence, nobody does it like, or is as good as, him.
Having said that, he can be quite profane, this bit has a few choice
expletives that would make your grandma kick the dog with disgust.
That is, if you haven’t wrapped her in Saran Wrap and industrial
foam insulation first.
Call Home Depot and watch this performance, enjoy a comedian
with a total mastery of irreverence ply his trade…

Babel Fish: The Oddest Thing in the Universe

A great slice from a superb BBC Television series based on
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams.
First the novel, then the radio play, followed by the TV
broadcast, ending with the movie much later.
All were good, some better than others, but much to be
enjoyed by all.
This explains the translation device used by galactic travellers
to navigate the universe.
Typical British acting and intellect, lots of entertainment here…

The Drinking Man’s Diet

This is a rare look at one of the best comedians to ever ply his trade.
A lot of folks in this day and age have never heard his name, and that
is a crying shame.
Allan Sherman did a lot in a short amount of time, most of his works
were done in the middle of the 1960’s.
He was an author, stand-up comedian, singer, and all around nice guy.
This piece shows a real talent for performing, I just played it on the show…
