Isn't That Special

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.

  Review: Mostly Stories, Tom Segura

  Aug 12, 20261h 7mS3

  This week we review comedy megastar Tom Segura in his 2016 special Mostly Stories. But of course first you'll want to hear the scintiallating discussion of the Oh Brother Where Are Thou? movie soundtrack (again), a riveting anecdote about escorting Ani DeFranco to her tour bus and a quick vox pop on swimwear styles. You can see the special on Netflix: Mostly Stories .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.
