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 well as Bob’s influence on Brian’s work.

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 that this movie gets made! Jason sat down with me to discuss one of his greatest influences – SNL. We delve even deeper into the album than we did the last time we covered it, and end up way too perplexed about the straight-up Coke ad at the beginning.
