Kliph Nesteroff is one of the great comedy historians of today, for the same reason he picked a comedian you haven’t heard of. Dick Davy has all the lasting strength of many of the great comedians from the late 60s you already know, which made this a really fun discussion. Kliph’s book “The Comedians” comes out this fall, and we couldn’t be more excited to read it.

Cole Stratton weirds it up this week with one of my new favorite comedy albums. Albert Brooks again bends the concept of the comedy record back when it was a medium you could still do that with and confuse people to their delight. It ends with a track where you get to perform a scripted sketch with Albert “on stage.” Thanks again to Cole for introducing us to this.
