Stand-up

This is a clever little piece from the gang at
National Lampoon, back when it was called
The National Lampoon Radio Hour.
This is Brian Doyle-Murray, the older brother
of Bill Murray, doing what he does best…


Home

Jeff Caldwell with a strong, smart set of comedy.
Snark is set on stun, aim is true, laughs inevitable.
His credit rating sounds like mine.
He’s a lot funnier than me though…

Talking Vietnam Potluck Blues

A Tom Paxton classic from 1971.
The Vietnam war was still going on when
this hit the airwaves, it created a bit of a stir.
Of course anything that parodied that ridiculous
war was certainly stir worthy.
After all was said and done the counterculture
movement had a hand in diminishing overall
support for it, this song helped that along.
You done good, Tom…




Little Blue Riding Hood

I played this on the show last week.
An absolutely tremendous display of voice actors
doing what they do best.
We’re talking the cream of the crop, Daws Butler
and June Foray showing the vocal skills that
powered hundreds of cartoons, animations, and
inanimate objects for decades.
And Stan Freberg ain’t no slouch either.
Basically a parody on the old radio and television
program called Dragnet, with some added twists…


They All Hate Me

Jeremy Hotz has a rather unique approach to
stand-up comedy.
He seems manic and somewhat perturbed.
Like he could snap at any moment, and take
out an entire family with nothing but a rubber
band and a box full of paperclips.
I’m sure it’s all an act, a well groomed persona
that took him years to cultivate.
Or he’s nuttier than monkey poop…
