Jerry Springer Taping
Tuesday March 31st, 2009 - Kansas City, KS Today was one for the bucket list.

The 700 Mile Club
Wednesday April 1st, 2009 - Kansas City, KS I feel like a zombie today after the long day yesterday. I was up at 4am and running like a maniac to finish my errands before heading over to the Jerry Springer taping. I forgot to mention I got to be on the show at the end segment where the......Read More

Keeping It In Neutral
Thursday April 2nd, 2009 - Kansas City, KS Another serving of fresh hot radio this morning with an order of politics on the side. It’s an uncomfortable situation but I’m right in the middle of it and I really don’t enjoy it at all. It’s the ugly side of comedy, radio......Read More

Heavy Pettiness
Friday April 3rd, 2009 - Kansas City, KS No go on the rock radio show this morning but I’m not upset about it. I knew none of it was about me so I don’t even want to give it a second thought. Would it have been nice to get on? I guess so. The guy has the top rated show in town......Read More

Saturday Night Heaver
Saturday April 4th, 2009 - Kansas City, KS Saturday night is supposed to be THE night in the comedy business. I would assume it’s that way for theatre, improv, live music and probably every other kind of entertainment as well. It’s the main night people go out and it’s......Read More

Kansas City Loyals
Sunday April 5th, 2009 - Kansas City, KS Getting ready for the long drive back to Chicago after the show tonight. Despite the few glitches this was still a fun week. I like it here.

Driving Myself Crazy
Monday April 6th, 2009 - Kansas City, KS/Chicago, IL I’ve lost all motivation to make twelve hour drives but that‘s exactly what I did today. It used to be an exciting adventure but now it’s a chore. There aren’t many interesting sights to see between Kansas City and......Read More

Eddie Brill Audition
Tuesday April 7th, 2009 - Chicago, IL I can feel I’m making progress. I had yet another audition tonight in front of Eddie Brill who books the comedians for the David Letterman show and I totally took it in the shorts. Absolutely horrible. Six minute set. Five minutes of silence. To......Read More

The Business Of The Business
Wednesday April 8th, 2009 - Chicago, IL Most people have no idea just how many different facets it takes to be successful in the comedy business. And that’s exactly what it is too - a BUSINESS. It isn’t just a matter of being funny and in fact I’ve always said funny is one......Read More

Out Of Site
Thursday April 9th, 2009 - Chicago, IL I need a new website. Badly. I also need several other things but the site was my priority for today. My old one has been down since Mr. Embezzler decided to do his little deal but that’s ancient history now. Nobody else cares about that and I......Read More
