This week, I talk with one of the producers of the Back to the Future documentary “Back in Time,” Lee Leshen, who brings up Howie Mandel’s insane crowdwork comedy for the first time on the show. Give it a listen, and go see the movie, which comes out the same day as The Million McFly March to

He’s a stand up, an author, and the host of Redacted Tonight. Give his work a listen and it’ll become obvious why the influence of Carlin was so important to him. We discuss Class Clown and how important it is to have not only a point of view and a voice, but a reason for being on stage. Not all stand ups necessarily agree that their work should have a point beyond laughter, but Lee’s a strong proponent of having one, and we have a great discussion about the purpose behind his material.

He’s the voice of Brak, one of the writers of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast, and a big fan of Steve Martin. We have a lot of fun talking about obscure comedy as well as this, one of the most well-known there is.

He’s an amazing stand-up, a writer for @midnight, and he was kind enough to pull this week’s album up on his phone since I gave away my vinyl to the last guest who picked it as that week’s album. Dan Telfer breaks down his love of “The Great White North” and sketch comedy in general, and then, because we haven’t had the discussion on the show yet, we talk Cosby. Because we both used to love him, and we both have our ways of expressing our change of heart. It’s a good episode.

Brian Kiley is a stand-up, writer for Conan, and author of the book The Astounding Misadventures of Rory Collins. Somehow, we haven’t covered this album since our first three episodes, so it was definitely time for a revisit. We sat down and talked about the changing world of stand-up, as we

Jason C. Brown is the director of an upcoming short film called Imaginary Friends, which is currently funding on Indiegogo, hence our unusual posting of a COV bonus episode this week. I may be biased (see me in the promo video below), but I think you should go send some money their way so t

The Independent Shakespeare Company’s own David Melville returns, to again open up our comedy minds to the works of George Formby. Still a respected name in English comedy, his work never quite traversed the ocean sufficiently, so it’s time for some mind expansion. Formby’s double-entendre-laden ukulele tunes are played with an unusual skill on an instrument mistakenly seen as simple, especially given its current ubiquity. Enjoy some fun tunes and, if you’re in LA, go see the Independent Shakespeare Company at Griffith Park this summer.

Craig Rowin of Your Pretty Face is Going To Hell drops by (and so do I, this was “on location” in Hollywood) to talk about Weird Al’s perfectly-timed “Off The Deep End.” Now, before you write me an e-mail about this being a CD-era album, I’d advise you to go to the Netherlands. Where they released this album on vinyl, apparently. Craig squeaked it, but I’m glad he did. This has one of my all-time top Weird Al songs, and we had a blast talking about (individually) meeting Weird Al, as well as, in his case, working with him.
