Might have said this a few months ago but I highly recommend Doug Stanhope's book. What a life that dude has led. His fart story.  quote:Let me take a moment to defend flatulence. While I can appreciate and enjoy intelligent humor that makes you think, I never want to become so ensconced in artistry that I no longer laugh at farts. There is nothing even remotely close to how much a powerful, wet, gurgling blast of gas and matter can make me laugh. From the beginning, as a child, they made me weep snot, and have continued to make me fall out every time since. I couldn’t name one other comedy source more timeless than farts. Stand-up comedy has the shelf life of mayonnaise in the hot sun. Jokes get old. Movies like Caddyshack still hold up fairly well but could never make me spill off a chair with tears running down my face, gasping for breath, like a well-placed, turbulent anal expulsion. Repeatedly, over and over, even when you see ’em coming. Jeff Brown and I commonly ate at the Sahara dinner buffet where I had—to this day—the best spectacle of bowel-wrenching flatulence of my life. The room was full of mostly elderly people, tables tightly packed, and we were seated dead center. It was silent except for the slight tinkling of silverware on plates. I felt my ower intestine chamber up and I knew it had championship prospects. I knew Jeff Brown would have absolutely no appreciation for what was about to happen, which made it way funnier. My chair was the perfect hard plastic for maximum reverberation. I was choking down the belly laugh as I leaned up and into the table, hands on the corners, thoroughly telegraphing my intentions. What came out of me was Hell’s Trumpet. A deafening tear echoed off every corner of that muted hall. It lasted at least 6–7 seconds, a veritable eternity of hang-time for nonstop wind. The pitch roared up and down the scales in range. The clarity of sound would have made you feel like you were actually dining inside my colon. People were seated literally a foot behind me. When it concluded, all sound in the dining room had completely evaporated. There was no question that every single person of the hundred or so in there had bore witness to my masterpiece. Jeff Brown was paralyzed with inner fury as the mortified silence turned to widespread murmurs of disgust. I simply stared at my plate as tears flooded my eyes, my nose ran, and I began to drool while convulsing and desperately trying to contain any audible laugh. Jeff would have run for the door had it not been situated so far away. He was genuinely enraged, and still comically fumes to this day when I bring that story up. I laughed just as hard now recounting it here as I did that pleasant afternoon. (And again, during rewrites.) Farts are the funniest things in life, and if you disagree, then you have no soul. End of story.

I was barely familiar with Stanhope and bought the book based on his reputation of telling wild stories. Good book! You could read it in a day and it's worth it. 1. Who are the pseudonyms? I'm dying to know who the real people w/ fake names were in this story 2. It's heartwarming to read & learn to love his mother, who was a terrible person 3. The author is a terrible person but you can't hate him because he doesn't (seem to) keep any secrets or have shame 4. Where are the stories about his presumably numerous illegitimate children 5. Who edited this? It's edited for poo poo (clearly chapters / portions raggedly chopped out where people were introduced) 6. Try the audiobook (haven't listened) because a lot of it lacks impact it deserves due to being written by a guy who does the talking out loud thing. I mean, it reads like a transcript of a well-rehearsed interview subject

Yeah, I'm planning to grab the audiobook for Stanhope's book. I usually prefer reading things for myself, but I feel like this one is better being heard.

The new Drew Michael stand-up album on Howl.FM is pretty good. He also has a new Comedy Central half hour I've yet to watch. He's kind of like a young Marc Maron.

I sincerely hope you guys are listening to Kyle Kinane's new podcast with Dave Stone. It's called The Boogie Monster and it's real good. They're supposed to talk about various paranormal/spooky stuff but they usually get sidetracked talking about food. I eagerly await each new episode. It's my new favorite thing. http://podbay.fm/show/1139926236

I mean, Major Entertainer Mike H is pretty alt but the other guys were just trying to tell jokes (mostly dealing with the hecklers screaming about 311 and Harambe).

I'm hoping to see Bargatze during JFL42 (which is actually up to 50 acts or so) at the end of the month. So far I am confirmed seeing Maria Bamford, Cameron Esposito, Emo Philips, Ron Funches, Tig Notaro, Dana Gould... hoping to also see Joe DeRosa, Kumail Nanjiani... kinda wanna see Sinbad too tbh

I went to the Eric Andre show the first time adult swim was putting them on. It was an absolute blast if you just accept the insanity. Though I can imagine that the show is actually popular now the crowds have gotten worse. I will always remember an audience member drinking kreyshawn's breast milk though.

I came across Judd Apatow's book Sick in the Head at the bookstore and bought it because of a few of the comedians interviewed. I'm not a fan of Apatow's work or his perspective on life, or his interview style, or even most of his peers/heroes he selected to interview, but it's a great book to read. Short interview snippets with (mostly) comedians about comedy. They say their basic beliefs about comedy and their grand ideas about life. Go ahead, read it.

I think DB is funny and I love his podcasts and basically everything about him going back to his I Love the 90s appearances... but his stand-up is so bad to me. I think he'd be a lot better if he tried his new stuff on L.A. audiences instead of (I'm assuming) solely working it piece by piece during his endless road dates through the country. There's like ten alt comedy shows in L.A. every single night and in the half-decade since I moved back here, I haven't seen his name on a single bill

She started with new stuff (I saw her about 6 months ago), then someone shouted something about the Packers and she got annoyed and did old stuff after that. I went to a thing she did earlier today and she talked about how when someone shouts in a venue she isn't expecting it (she was opening for Bamford in a theatre), she gets flustered and goes to reliable older bits.

I've got a pile of VHS tapes in the basement and on one is a recording from the late 90's of Kashian on Conan and she's doing bits on Final Fantasy and Lethal Enforcers to a network TV audience.

Tonight I saw Dana Gould and Cameron Esposito do headliner sets. The only thing that sucked a bit was that Dana's opener was... Cameron. And she went long, and it started a bit late, so then I had to miss the end of Dana's set to rush off to my other show. Which was Cameron. Rhea opened for Cameron and was great.
