Sometimes the Old Man is Right

About Sometimes the Old Man is Right

A somewhat weekly comedy/entertainment/opinion show hosted by award-winning comedian Lamont Ferguson. The idea behind the show is that society often dismisses any older person's opinion as them automatically being "too old" or "out of touch." Their argument or opinion is never even considered for that reason. I will try my best to look at various topics from all angles and give credence to all legitimate concerns because I believe that Sometimes The Old Man is Right! The goal is to do so in a humorous and intelligent manner.

I start with a quick hello to the “Elite Eight” listeners, a few classic TV theme song shout-outs, and then we slide straight into the stuff that’s been grinding my gears. Pickleball is supposed to be fun, but the levels, the ego hit...

   Ep. 51(Season 4 episode 11) - The IRS Confirms I’m Funny

   Send us Fan Mail One harmless joke can expose a whole culture problem. We’re on the Holland America Eurodam at the end of a sea week, and after recording Episode 51 once already, we scrap it and start over because the energy wasn’t honest enough. That choice turns into the episode’s backbone: if you care about the work, you say what you mean, even when it’s uncomfortable. From there, we jump into the moment that lit the fuse, a social post about Mitch McConnell that was meant to be pur...

   Ep. 50 (Season 4 episode 10) - Confessions On A Cruise Ship

   Send us Fan Mail Five friends go out. Four friends come back. One 18-year-old doesn’t. That’s where I start when I talk about Nolan Wells, the unsettling details being reported, and why the combination of race, Mississippi, deleted social media, and lawyering up makes people feel like they’ve “seen this film before.” I’m not here to play detective, but I am here to say what a lot of folks are thinking out loud and to sit with the bigger question: what does friendship look like when it actuall...
