Jimmy

An oldie but a goodie from Cheech and Chong.
Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong have been a
comedy duo since the early 70’s.
Insanely popular, especially with the counter
cultural types, when they first came out, they
were THE go-to comedy sketch folks to see.
Fast forward quite a bit, they’re doing the talk
shows and the occasional nostalgia tour with a
loyal but dwindling following.
I still play certain bits of theirs on the show to
decent reviews.
Jimmy needs to learn, a LOT of things…


High School Team Names

Kellen Erskine with a superb performance.
He’s a very talented stand-up comedian, as
good as it gets and then some.
He has a low level yet devastating snark, his
timing is really great, and his subject matter
sets him apart from other comedians.
He also seems unflappable, stoic just doesn’t
cut it, he’s way beyond that.
This is a treat, showing off his improv skills
to the delight of the audience…


Speed

The Not Ready for Prime Time Players performed this
little sketch back in the first season of SNL.
Back when they were somewhat humorous, 1975 to 76.
The skits were pretty tight, the comedians seasoned by
years of radio and stage performing.
The whole cast had experience…Belushi, Chase, Aykroyd,
Radner and the rest did work for National Lampoon radio,
improv stage work, and various other avenues of comedy.
Those were the days…
