Kathleen Madigan, “Hunting Bigfoot”
One of my favorite touring comedians is back with a new special on Prime Video. Here’s my mini-review.
Richard Belzer
My memories of seeing the comedian (who died this weekend at 78) prowling the stage at Catch A Rising Star, and later as half of a morning radio show that only lasted a couple of years.
Marc Maron, “From Bleak To Dark”
A few thoughts after watching comedian Marc Maron’s terrific new HBO special, “From Bleak To Dark.”
Jeffrey Ross Crushes It
Here’s comic Jeffrey Ross crushing it in his network TV debut, long before he proclaimed himself the Roastmaster General because of his talent for insult comedy.
Stupid Don’t Get Tired
I enjoyed the hell out of this Alonzo Bodden special and wish he’d get more respect (and a nice payday) from the big streaming services. See if you agree.
Comedy Bladder Control
We had a great time at Chris Rock’s standup show this weekend, in which he offered only a couple of jokes about the Will Smith Oscars slap. But there was something that really annoyed me.
“George Carlin’s American Dream”
I have a few observations after watching the HBO documentary about the legendary comedian, including a story about the only time he guested on my radio show.
Furious and Speechless
The news about the impending SCOTUS decision reversing Roe v. Wade has left me furious and speechless. Fortunately, I have a clip of George Carlin discussing the topic as only he could.
