POTD: Gary Mule Deer
For the first Picture Of The Day of 2021, let’s start with something that has nothing to do with current events, but should put a smile on your face.
POTD: Jerry Seinfeld & Steve Martin
Picture Of The Day: It can be excruciatingly boring listening to comedians discuss how they do what they do. But when the comics are Jerry Seinfeld and Steve Martin, it’s genuinely fascinating.
POTD: There’s A Horse In The Hospital
Picture Of The Day: every word of this John Mulaney bit from last year was true then, and is even more true after last night’s debate.
POTD: Iliza Shlesinger’s Cancel Corner
For the Picture Of The Day, here’s Shlesinger filling in for Jimmy Kimmel last night with a monologue about cancel culture and internet trolls.
POTD: The Four Yorkshiremen
For the Picture Of The Day, here’s a pre-Monty Python sketch that John Cleese and Graham Chapman did with Tim Brooke-Taylor and Marty Feldman, from “At Last The 1948 Show.” I just hope kids today can watch this and understand how rough life used to be.

I’m saddened to hear of the death of comedy legend Carl Reiner, who was a guest on my radio show more times than almost anyone else. Here are some of my memories of him.
Best Things I’ve Heard Recently
After a couple of months of not listening to podcasts, here are three episodes I enjoyed recently and recommend to you.

His Netflix show “Patriot Act” remains both compelling and amusing, which is a tough combination to pull off. A recent special episode on George Floyd was a standout. Watch it here.
