Episode 291 – Family Albums Episode 6 – Finding Dick Davy

Posted on by

This episode was, essentially, three years in the making.  Three years ago Kliph Nesteroff introduced me to Dick Davy and explained that no one knew who he really was or what had happened to him.  I decided, for some reason, that I’d do the legwork and find out.  This is the first episode we’re doing outside the normal format, and I hope you enjoy it.  (Thank you to Sharon Hoffman for the two photos of her and Dick Davy on this post)

Episode 128 – Kliph Nesteroff on Dick Davy

Posted on by

NesteroffKliph 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.
