John Heffron with some new material on looking at
the younger generation.
He is correct of course, we were just like they are.
My goal is to live long enough to see THEM get
just as flustered as they made me…

A superb creation by Antsy McClain and the Trailer Park Troubadours.
I cannot find this treasure in a higher resolution which makes me
think it might have been made this way to begin with.
I love to play it on the show, the visuals do add to the mix with the video.
Well done, Antsy, well done…

Tom Mabe made a living for a while pranking telemarketers.
He was quite good it.
I have analyzed the sketches he has created to try to deduce
how he must have formed them on the fly.
This one is a keeper, he pulls it off nicely.
That callback’s the proof…

This is from early on in Steve Martin’s career when he was
still doing comedy recordings, a 1978 release.
He had been on Saturday Night Live already but still had
not become a major draw in the theaters yet.
He was a bit twisted, that is a good thing of course, and not
afraid to show it.
This guy has done it all in the world of comedy, a true giant.
Please do not try this at home…

I went deep this week.
Or shallow, it depends on how you look at it I suppose.
Starts with the Austin Lounge Lizards, a very worthy band.
David Crowe with a smart set.
Rhett & Link with a great radio piece that’s actually better
with the video, the imagery really dials it in.
Insanity block, I could not resist.
And believe it or not, a bloody crime block.
One certainly can, and often does, lead to the other.
Antsy McClain with another example of a good radio bit
that is enhanced by the visual aspects of the video.
I will post that soon.
Huge props go to the late, great Oscar Brand, he of the
longest running radio program in history.
I sprinkled some Summer yearnings in there as well.
A little round things block at the end.
Greg gets the top spot.
Onward and upwards…
