Watching Sarah Silverman smelling Richard Christie's balls is amazingly disgusting. And funny.

The uncensored version from Howard TV is on YouTube for some reason.

Plus Sarah has never been cuter somehow.

I once blanked Gene Simmons for a couple hours while my party sat on the couch perpendicular to the one he and his kid were sitting on backstage at some concert at Universal. I don't remember who was playing. We took enjoyment in pretending he didn't exist every time we looked up and he started to get that 'Yes, I AM Gene Simmons" look on his face, because KISS kind of sucked when you really boil it down.
Aha, I've seen that dude wandering around Hollywood Boulevard trying to get noticed.

drat, maybe it was just low expectations but when I listened to the sjp interview driving in this morning I really liked it.

The stories about running around 80's NYC by herself as a working child actor. Wow.

Anyway, Artie's a racist junkie, although goddamn he was a funny one once. I saw him onstage a couple of years ago and he was pathetic and unfunny.

Howard is doing a different show now, no poo poo. He's rich as hell and doesn't need constant conflict and agita in his life, so he's paying somebody to do that for him.

I'm pretty sympathetic as I get older, you can't be the angry young man your whole life.

Steven Van Zandt also had the Underground Garage channel on Sirius. (dont know if they are still there cause I havent had sirius for a few years)

When I first got Sirius Underground Garage was genuinely interesting every time I listened. Old stuff, new stuff, new stuff that sounded like old stuff, old stuff that sounded like new stuff. Later it was playing mainstream oldies (the Beatles are in no way underground).

Also been a few years since I subscribed.

Bigger Boat is a great poster (as I am a great lurker) but I’ve seen GWAR and KISS and GWAR is the only one of the two I wanted to see more than once. And did see repeatedly.

I spent a lot of time working literally on Hollywood Boulevard, and the oddest celebrity non-interaction I had was ~2015 when Gene walked into the magazine store and looked around, waiting for someone to recognize him, but everyone looked away.

Same bookstore where some page thirty-something model for famous magazine Girls And Corpses ‘met’ me. In the mag she was in a hot tub with allegedly a real corpse, aka soup, and I acknowledged her but not Gene.

I’ve spent way too much time thinking about Dice and Kinison, as I was an impressionable Gen-X lad that loved comedy and obsessed over who was gonna perform on Letterman next week.

Somehow 80’s nostalgia forgets AIDS was murdering people constantly and bringing huge anxiety around every sexual, or even sometimes nonsexual contact. It’s hard to express what this was like, even for a straight little virgin like myself at the time , and I’ve never seen it reflected in entertainment. For example I loved Adventureland, but drat that “romantic” montage would have been a lot more awkward with a realistic representation of that level of fear and panic about what safe sex even means - ever try to figure out a dental dam when all you know about vaginas is Penthouse? See the documentary Booty Call as the closest to acknowledge this.

Scene set, back to comedy. Kinison’s second album Have You Seen Me Lately (not listened to for ~40 years think I remember every syllable of the start) began with an all time great drunk driving bit. Then he quickly complained about ‘safe sex’ and BAM ’just because a few f(yeah) hosed some monkeys…

I laughed my rear end off because that idea that’s what AIDS came from was such a radical dumb wrong thing that some morons actually beloved was absurd, but more importantly channeled my anxiety and fear into laughter. Of course bring older, wiser, etc, it’s obvious a lot of the cheers in the audience did blame (slurs)for making drunken rawdogging less fun than they were told it was in the 60’s.

Anyway, being commercially successful in that era meant mocking and celebrating bigotry at the same time, after all if you picked a side you’d lose half your audience. Howard was a master at this, and if he misses one (cough, Selena) then the tapes got dumped into the Atlantic or if they showed up he was out of his mind then.

That winking ‘ironic’ poo poo feels as dated as Don Rickles’ “I insult everybody” shtick. Funny at the time and now a nostalgia act. Howard is smart to dump those tapes down the memory hole.

That being said I’d pay $20 a month just to listen to the news from the peak era. I’ll mourn when the Gottfried Archive Project gets yanked from YouTube.
