All of a sudden, I know something

I contend that nobody knows nothin’ about nothin’, which is why we’re in such a mess. I’m just sayin’.

But George Smyth over at the The One Minute How-To finds experts everywhere, and lines ‘em up all week long to explain, in 60 seconds, how you can do what they say they know how to do.

Normally, I don’t like to give away any secrets. But at George’s request, and because there’s no way he was going to feature my profane melodies on his mellow music podcast, Eclectic Mix, I agreed to speak to the folks about my favorite subject, How To Write A Funny Song (Show 193).

Slow but hilarious — that’s me!

My appearance on The Awful Show has already won new fans, who overlooked a laconic persona to heap eloquent praise on my generic comedy music product:

Who’s your doctah?

Host Robin Goldstein is back after three weeks off to rest her surgically repaired brain, and I’m called in to consult on my own recent experiences with the health care system. Today we learn that CT scans are freakin’ hilarious!

But what the heck, we’re all Jews here, or we’ve all at least had the sniffles at one time or another. Doctors are our favorite topic.

Before the fun gets out of hand, though, entertainment reporter Jason Nathanson joins the conversation from Hollywood to dissect some casualties from the TV networks’ spring schedules. Andy Richter, anyone? Continue reading
