Rodney Carrington was born back in 1968!
This video is a @#$”%^& hoot!
It has my very first Comedy 101 Radio interview,

This is not the “live” version that everyone knows and
loves, it’s a rare studio version that sounds really cool.
Some say Chuck is up there now playing with his…

Not the Nine O’Clock News with a great comedy sketch

rest is fresh and funny.
A very young Rowan Atkinson as the lead man…
