What could be more pointless than ANOTHER Podcast? How about one that's focused on the grating and tediously over-populated world of streaming stand-up comedy 'specials'? Can we sweeten the pot by making the hosts two old gits whose love of comedy and social relevance have long since faded to nothingness? If that sounds like just the thing you're looking for then boy do we have 30-40 minutes of your listening time to waste that you'll never get back! Hosts are Bill and Mark and tech production and artistic direction is by Christian. We'll only publish full names when we hit 10K subscriptions and start to monetize.

Review: Dark Little Whispers, Dina Hashem
We pare it back to a more manageable one hour show this week with opening discussions on Fleetwood Mac, kayaks, camping trips and what constitutes a healthy sugar intake.For our special we cover one of the first ever recorded at The Lincoln Lodge with Dina Hashem's Dark Little Whispers! Watch the special for free on Amazon! (At least I think it's free - it's hard to tell if it's part of Prime or not): Dark Little Whispers You should watch it before listening to the review. Theme music: El Cha Cha Man by Juanitos. Juanitos, led by Juan Naveira, is the single French rock'n'roll and soul band mixing latin soul, exotica, acid jazz, punk, vocal pop and sometimes reggae roots in the Jackie Mittoo style. They are very good.

Review: Night Thoughts, Kumail Nanjiani
There's no avoiding this so we're going to come right out and say it: This episode reviewing Kumail Nanjiani's special Night Thoughts is 2 hours long. And if you think that is painful to listen to imagine how awful it was recording it! A very long preamble and a 'dishing of the T' as 'the youth' like to say is no excuse. Is 2 hours too long? Only you can decide: Available on Hulu only (yeah, we know) - Night Thoughts. You should watch it before listening to the review. Theme music: El Cha Cha Man by Juanitos. Juanitos, led by Juan Naveira, is the single French rock'n'roll and soul band mixing latin soul, exotica, acid jazz, punk, vocal pop and sometimes reggae roots in the Jackie Mittoo style. They are very good.

Review: Live In Concert (1979), Richard Pryor
This week's important discussion covers sports in Las Vegas, sandwiches at White Sox games and Swedish culture. For our comedy special we review what is considered, by many, the yardstick by which all other comedy specials are measured: Richard Pryor, live in Concert (1979). Ooooh! I wonder what they'll say about it? It's a bugger to find but is available to watch for free on Daily Motion: Richard Pryor Live in Concert. You should watch it before listening to the review. Theme music: El Cha Cha Man by Juanitos. Juanitos, led by Juan Naveira, is the single French rock'n'roll and soul band mixing latin soul, exotica, acid jazz, punk, vocal pop and sometimes reggae roots in the Jackie Mittoo style. They are very good.
