Five-time Grammy winner Pete Schickele is unknown to many but if you were a comic in the 90s you may know him as the guy who beat you out for a Grammy. Danny Polishchk brought this story to my attention and it is just wild. We go on a deep dive into who the fuck this Peter Schickele guy even is.

Big Jay Oakerson made me pick him up at the airport as my last responsibility as producer (Jewish term) of his new standup special, Dog Belly. I’m so proud of him. The special is amazing. I still find his fashion and musical tastes to be problematic but his standup is among the best in the world.

Mike Vecchione has a new special out now called "The Attractives" but before he did standup, Mike was a teacher for some rough and tough kids in Philly. He molded and shaped America's wild youth and he's here to tell me all about it.

Joe and Henry came over to kill some time with me before we all headed to the Whit Reaper concert. A natural way to kill time is by talking about all the weird times you've had in strip clubs across the country. Enjoy.

Kevin Ryan and H. Foley came over to talk about some of the first jobs they ever had, which led to a great conversation with the garbage guys about working at country club golf courses. Who do you think would be better at golf?
