Andy Daly has proved to be one of the funniest guys ever. If you don't listen to Comedy Death Ray Radio then you should. In short, the format is pretty basic though it does take a bit to get used to. Scott Aukerman plays host, there is a person who appears as themselves (I.E. Patton Oswalt will be on to talk about random stuff), and then there is usually another comedian on who will be playing a character. There can be more or less people but its usually as I mentioned. There is a rhythm to how the show works that can be a bit off putting. I got used to it after a few episodes though.
Anyhow Andy Daly is funny. I also think Brett Gelman is probably one of the funniest guys in the world right now, but anytime he is on Comedy Death Ray he also kills.
This friday I'm going to go see Chuck Klosterman talk about something...I guess. Craig Finn will be there too. I'm not sure how that will all work out.
This post was simply to inform you of who I think is awesome. Sorry if you didn't like it. But to entertain you a bit NORM MACDONALD GIVING A GREAT INTERVIEW TO THE AVCLUB!
AVC: What else don’t you like about televised stand-up?
NM: It never really makes me laugh. The only one I ever saw that I liked was Richard Pryor, and that was [shot on] film. I’ve just seen really, really funny guys, and if I didn’t know them, I wouldn’t know they were funny from the television. I don’t know what it does, it just sucks it away. It’s a live experience. It’s like when they fucking show—I know nothing about plays and shit, but sometimes they’ll show a play on TV, and it’s fucking shit, because you’re like, “What the fuck, am I supposed to think that’s a moon?” Like it’s a cardboard moon or some shit.
