The late, great Bud Abbot was born back in 1895!
He was one of the first GREAT comedians of the 20th century.
He and his longtime partner, Lou Costello, were trend
setting and quite the duo back in the day.
Here’s a lesson on NOT loaning money to a pal.
Happy birthday Bud Abbott!

The late, stupendous Groucho Marx was born back in 1890!
One of the absolute greats, his performances are legendary.
As dated as they are the Marx Brothers movies are still
quite watchable decades after they were produced.
I highly recommend any of them.
Especially the gem this clip was taken from, Horse Feathers!
Happy Birthday, Groucho!

I absolutely love stuff like this!
Leslie Nielsen as police inspector Frank Drebin in one
of several funny scenes in The Naked Gun flick.
He was one of a kind, nobody quite like him.
Keeping him alive…

Zorak with a splendid performance about odors and unemployment!
I do believe that one of those could very well lead to the other.
But I’m no doctor, I just play one on TV…

John Mulaney with a funny bit on apathy, comfort and
taking the path of least resistance!
He’s a great stand-up comedian, lots of interesting
stories to tell, I’m happy to play him on the show…

Lily Tomlin was born back in 1939!
I played a classic piece of hers yesterday and
today I give you the first recording I had ever
heard from her.
She is one of the funniest people on the planet,
smart as a whip as well.
Happy Birthday Lily!
