Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours...our gift to your travels this weekend is a jampacked 2+ hours of CTR wonderfulality. It's all about stand up comedy, past and present, the changes in the art form, the all-time greats, the most overrated comedians ever, the Mount Rushmore of stand-up comedy, the best to transfer to television, film, or other mediums. We bring in a list from a stand-up connoisseur and talk about what we agree and disagree with. This is Andy and Jason as THEY got to know each other as friends years ago, coming together in a kindred spirit of jokes. There's also an odd conversation about Regis Philbin's possible replacement...from people who really don't watch that show anymore but hey, Kelly Ripa's hot! Enjoy this early holiday gift from CTR and let us know what you think. Theme provided by Buffalo Rodeo - "All the Same" from the Wanderers EP! Find it online today at buffalorodeo.bandcamp.com!
