Kathleen Madigan with a humorous bit about quitting
cigarettes, credit cards, and fleeing the country.
Yes, in that order.
She’s one of the few stand-up comedians that are always ON
One of the very best, if there was a Hall of Fame she’d be a shoe in.
Some funny lines here…

The show flowed quite well this week.
Some obscure but satisfying material mixed in with
the usual stuff you won’t hear anywhere else.
A few blocks this week, I was playful…rednecks,
smoking, memory, and relationships.
The usual.
John Wing is a great stand-up comedian.
Tom Rush with a really funny piece.
Red Green is a real hoot, old fashioned wisdom
stuffed into a nice tortilla shell of humor.
I can get very descriptive when I’m hungry.

Arlo Guthrie has led a very interesting life.
Son of the late, great Woody Guthrie he has
picked up where his father left off.
A pretty talented singer, with some serious
chops in the songwriting department as well.
He’s an old hippy with plenty to say and much
to sing about.
I love to play him on the show.
He explains much here, to our delight…

This goes back to the wonderful days of the
National Lampoon Radio Hour…early 70’s.
The voice you hear is that of Brian Doyle-Murray
the older and more talented brother of Bill.
Not a knock, just a fact.
It’s an interesting word salad of sorts, it keeps
growing on you…

Dan Gabriel has a way with a stand-up set that
makes you take notice.
He’s quirky, does not mince words, gets right to
the point, makes you laugh.
Who says there’s no efficiency in stand-up comedy?
He’s a proud new father, to a point.
Some minor B-shelf expletives, with adult oriented
material thrown in to send all of you straight to
Hades, the bus leaves in ten minutes and I’ll be
your driver…
