Episode 291 – Family Albums Episode 6 – Finding Dick Davy

This episode was, essentially, three years in the making.  Three years ago Kliph Nesteroff introduced me to Dick Davy and explained that no one knew who he really was or what had happened to him.  I decided, for some reason, that I’d do the legwork and find out.  This is the first episode we’re doing outside the normal format, and I hope you enjoy it.  (Thank you to Sharon Hoffman for the two photos of her and Dick Davy on this post)

Episode 289 – Family Albums Episode 4 – Lawrence T. Dawson and Belle Harrell on Mr. Silver Spitzdawson

I discovered a vanity press album not long ago, with a weird anthropomorphic dog on it, called Mr. *Silver* Spitzdawson.  I bought it, and I soon after bought the follow-up.  They are weird, rambly and filled with the joy of two guys who really like making stuff up and making each other laugh – very much a podcast on vinyl.  I talked with the surviving member of the duo, Lawrence Dawson, and the widow of the other member, Belle Harrell.  It was fun, entertaining, and somewhat cathartic.  Also, it lead to next week’s episode, hence the delay in releasing this, that you weren’t really aware of.

Episode 288 – Nigel Planer

You might know Nigel Planer as Neil from The Young Ones, or you might have seen him in a million other things, or heard him discussed on this very podcast, not long ago.  He sat down (I assume) to talk to me about his career, helping launch stand-up in the UK, and his influences.

Episode 286 – Josh Clark on Steve Martin – A Wild and Crazy Guy

Josh Clark co-hosts the wonderful Stuff You Should Know podcast and also has a new podcast, The End of the World with Josh Clark.  He wanted to talk about A Wild and Crazy Guy but for a NEW reason – he’d never heard it before!  I love when people take chances, and this was a blast.

Episode 284 – Phil Rosenthal on The Incomplete Works Of Carl Reiner & Mel Brooks

I grew up on shows like Everybody Loves Raymond and Phil Rosenthal grew up listening to easily too much comedy on vinyl.  It’s hard to argue with the results, because Phil creates shows and stars in them – Somebody Feed Phil is my favorite travel show.  We talk Carl Reiner, Mel Brooks, and I dig into some old Newspapers to discover more about Phil’s impressive acting career.

Episode 283 – Jared Jeffries on The Chicago Language Tape

Jared is a delight, a huge comedy nerd, and he’s half of the duo that created one of my favorite sketch albums in years, the vinyl-only A Gift You Didn’t Ask for From Friends You Never Had which, full disclosure, is distributed by my comedy record label, Celery Sound Records.  We had a great time talking about this local curiosity.
