This is one of my favorite pieces from John Mulaney.
John’s a very underrated stand-up comedian.
He has a really unique way of looking at the world
and all its quirks, not at all pessimistic or dark.
I find that listening to John tends to make me feel
somewhat hopeful.
This bit is spot on, as the British would say…

I went with some classic Summer pieces for this
show, it’s been very hot as of late and it seemed
like the right thing to do.
A few tunes written by the late, great Shel Silverstein.
It’s hard to ignore his influence on the world.
It seems like everyone has covered him at some
point, he was a superb songwriter with a very
unique perspective on life.
John Pinette in a Speedo!
C’mon, picture it, it will only hurt for a minute.
We hear from The Old Dogs, a great mix of country
western super stars that do Shel justice.
Mike MacDonald with a great piece of stand-up.
A classic from Christopher Titus.

Darby O’Gill with a tale of Hoe.
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
Though she couldn’t sing a lick, that’s not
where her talents lie.
And that’s no lie…

A slice of 1992’s Army of Darkness starring Bruce Campbell.
Ash has to beat a bunch of little Ashes, then one big Ash.
He’s up to his ass in Ash.
Let’s hope he washes his hands afterwards…

Tommy Johnagin with a testosterone fueled diatribe
of epic proportions.
Well no, not really, it’s actually just the opposite.
Tommy just went full all out wussy cakes by hiring
a handy-man to, believe it or not, hang a painting.
Needless to say he was forced to hand in his Guy Card…

2NU with a classic…
