Dan and Jay’s Comedy Hour Podcast Episode 53 – Dan’s Berfday

This episode was recorded on Dan’s actual birthday so that Jay and Ari could tell Dan what his big birthday present is.  Jay also decides to blow the lid on a present he refuses to let Dan open.  The video we discuss is Dan’s 20th birthday cartoon, part of an entire tape Jay made for Dan to celebrate his birthday at his surprise party, that year.  Also, yes, the homophobia is ironic, especially given the nicknames Dan and Jay would frequently be pelted with at school.

Comedy on Vinyl Podcast Episode 148 – Rob Newhart

 

 

It’s not often you get to talk to someone about playing their own father in a movie.  In 1992, that’s exactly what Rob did, for a cameo in “Heart and Souls.”  We discuss how that came about this week, as big fans of his dad, but we also discuss his own introduction to comedy by the likes of Richard Pryor and George Carlin, the former passed down from his father.  The album we’re holding isn’t discussed in this episode, but we are holding it for a reason – it has the first recorded mention of Rob’s name, in track one of side 2, in which Bob talks about becoming a father.

Comedy on Vinyl Podcast Episode 147 – Live Tribute to Robin Williams – with Rick Overton, Jamie Costa and Josia Elliott

On Sunday, August 2nd at IOWest, we helped kick off The 13th Annual Los Angeles Improv Comedy Festival with a tribute to Robin Williams, with Robin’s close friend, Rick Overton, and special guests Josia Elliott and Jamie Costa.  Josia’s a big Robin fan, and if you haven’t seen Jamie’s moving tributes to Robin in the form of impressions, you should go here: youtu.be/Shg53iv4B9o

We had a wonderful time talking about Robin, his work, and getting a little sidetracked about impressions.  But it wouldn’t be a tribute to that great mind if we weren’t a little all over the place
