Fri, 18 September 2009 Jimmy and Todd have some advice for young comics, Wild Party of 4, and Todd visit's Matt at work. Comments[6] |
Love the podcast guys.
In the episode with Jim Gaffigan, Dore said he knew he was funnier than most of his peers in high school and could come up with funny comments in social situations but didn't really know how to turn that into stand-up comedy at first.
I feel like that describes me well and doing some stand-up is something I'd definitely like to try at some point. Can you guys talk about how you go about making that transition/writing material? The best I can imagine is writing down whenever I have a funny thought during the day so I don't forget and trying to maybe explore it more and turn it into something that resembles a refined joke.
If I just sit down and tell myself to write a funny joke I just draw blanks.
GET OF MY PHONE YOU LITTLE PINHEAD!

Glenn Beck has no beliefs. He's a brainless, vapid moron whose primary job is to attract viewers, listeners and people who view webpages. This is particularly evident in his monologue about hating 9/11 victims' families. 30-60 seconds in he confesses that it's only a few families he hates, but the sound bite that will attract all the attention has already been read. You played it on your show, and I am sure it's gotten thousands of views on YouTube and other sites. It's kind of like starting an essay by grabbing the audience's attention with a bold claim, only in this case he's catering to the lowest common denominator.
As far as New Orleans getting the bulk of the press after Katrina, it was not the storm itself but the breech of the levees that caused most of the damage.

Whoa am I excited to hear that Todd is coming to Tampa.
Todd, I know this may sound a little like the calling Mick Jagger to ask about the traffic thing, but I had a quick question. What night and time is typically the best show?
Man, I am really, really excited.

It's the Polish Prince again. I tried to just keep quiet, but I just couldn't handle listening to Jimmy rant anymore. Jimmy do you really consider yourself an American? Do you have any idea what it means to be an American? You need to separate your personel beliefs from true politics. This country is falling apart and all you want to do is be a hater.Why would anyone want to be dependant on the government? All that is doing is making people lazy. We need to start to help ourselves, instead of everyone looking for a free hand out. Aren't we trying to push this health care reform a bit to fast? I mean look around what is going on in the world. Iran, Afganistan,countries making nukes and this country has no money. I think we need some kind of health reform but slow it down. I'll admit each party has there whack jobs. We have Glenn Beck & you have Keith Obermann.You asked me why i come back, well when you're not trying to be the next Obermann, you guys are pretty funny. This country would be much stronger if both sides could work together & get along. You don't have to like what were preaching, but at least have a open mind about things. Jeez.#1 thing in our constitution is to protect our country. And we need to start doing that.Even your comedian liberial counter parts, Fitzsdogs, Marc Marons, can see both sides of the picture. Plus you guys could get better ratings since you have both sides listening. Don't expect you to respond back, but i'm here if you need the Polish Prince's help! God Bless America. Oh yeah you guys don't like us to say that. "Green" Bless America. PS- Todd when you coming to Milwaukee? Would love to check your stand up again. Be good everyone
