Episode 117 – Wayne White on Richard Pryor – Wanted

WayneWhiteIf you don’t know Wayne White’s name, you owe it to yourself to go watch “Beauty is Embarrassing” immediately and feel bad that his name passed you by the millions of times you’ve seen it.  Part of Wayne and his work is in Pee Wee’s Playhouse, Beakman’s World, and the Smashing Pumpkins music video for “Tonight, Tonight,” just to name the three things that are quickest to name.  He’s a brilliant painter (see a tiny portion of a mural of his in the photo above) and comedy appreciator and mixes the two wonderfully with his word paintings, which he intends to simply entertain his audience.  He’s inspiring, insightful, and he likes funny shit.  Listen to why he picked this amazing double-album from Richard Pryor.

Episode 116 – Carlos Alazraqui on Cheech and Chong – Los Cochinos

Alazraqui

The amazing Carlos Alazraqui stops by his own house to discuss Los Cochinos, which comes with a nice personal story involving the one and only Cheech Marin.  We actually recorded this one quite awhile back, but I thought it’d be fun to revisit with a new perspective on the album sooner, rather than later.

Episode 115 – Dan Pasternack on George Carlin – Take Offs and Put Ons

Pasternack

Consummate comedy nerd, comedy vinyl collector and comedian in his own right (yes, he had a song played on Dr. Demento’s show when he was 11), Dan Pasternack is here to talk Carlin’s “Take Offs and Put Ons,” not to mention putting most people’s comedy stories to shame with one encounter involving both George Carlin and Stan Freberg.  Enjoy, and be sure to read his articles on McSweeney’s about his comedy vinyl collection.

Episode 114 – Dave Kloc on Mitch Hedberg – Mitch All Together

DaveKlocThat album we’re holding is indeed not Mitch Hedberg’s “Mitch All Together.”  That’s because A) It wasn’t released on vinyl and B) the gentleman next to Jason, here, is Dave Kloc, the designer of this amazing album cover for Jonah Ray’s “Hello Mr. Magic Plane Person, Hello.”  Not only that, but Dave has designed every single poster for every single Meltdown show here in Los Angeles and, of course, on your TV screens.  We talk serious comedy addiction, art, and Mitch Hedberg this week.
