Naka on Wood

Cori Healy’s a funny comedian. Her CD would make a good after-Christmas-Boxing-Day gift. Think about it…then do it.

Running With Scissors Show

I hope y’all got the take home message of the above. If you’re ever running and there are scissors in your hand, JUST-PUT-THEM-DOWN! Leave the dangerous stuff to us.

Every first Thursday of the month I’ll be putting together the Running with Scissors Show at Estoria (East Atlanta, Cabbagetown to be specific) showcasing the A’s deep variety of comedy talent.

RWS

Estoria is already a cool hang out that’ll be a cool new place for comedy too. Our first run of the show was in the beginning of October and we had a great turn out. Hoping for a good second go! Our next show is Thursday, November 5th

727 Wylie St, Atlanta, Ga

I’ll be hosting a real funny group of cats:

Andy Sanford- 1/4 of the Beards of Comedy and a brilliant comedy writer

Eric McGee- Super laid back. Feeds the audience jokes like an IV- very subtle

Justin Morgan- Class president of Atlanta comedy. You’ll want to watch for him.

Karen Hilton- Just pay attention and you’ll be rolling in no time. One word, clever.

Matt Pharr- Some of the best stories on and off stage. I’ve never not been entertained by Matt Pharr

Sean Wilkinson- Running With Scissors will be proud to have this funny guy from Boston as our guest for the evening.

Tanner Inman- Tanner is part of a comedy group called The Lost Comics and their tagline is, “Like seeing stand up comedy for the first time.” That’s better than i could have said it.

Tracy Morgan On Being 'The New Black'

new black cover

Tracy Jordan doing a real interview and not a character? & he gets emotional? NPR gets Tracy to open up about his life growing up with a drug addicted father, his struggles adjusting on SNL, and how he got into comedy:

Morgan didn’t turn to comedy until after his best friend was murdered. “He would say to me, ‘Yo, Tracy, man, you should be doing comedy.’ A week later, he was murdered. And that for me, that was like my Vietnam. I had my survival guilt when I started to achieve success. Why I made it out and some guys didn’t.”

Atlanta, Help Me Help You Make Your Thursday Better

What’s up, guys

The Running With Scissors Comedy Show is this Thursday, October 1st. I was gonna say this is a warning but I guess I should use the traditional term and say, invitation. If you’re against fun you probably shouldn’t come but I know you’re not one of those people . This Thursday just got better, all you have to do is show up.

No Cover
9 pm at Estoria
727 Wylie St,
Atlanta, Ga 30316

I’ll be hosting a small crew of hilarious folks:
April Boddy… Does comedy good (see what I did there)
Cris Gray… The other token meat
Dan Weeks… The face of Shark Week
Eric McGee… Bringing light skinned back one joke at a time.
The Gallois Bros… Funnier than the Mario bros in every way
Zaurito… How to speak Russian in 10 minutes

$6 Pitchers of PBR for everyone that loves Pabst (Don’t front for the internet, you know…)

I’ll do 5 jumping jacks if I see you there.

Peace

I like having radio silence. I think radio silence is an important part of any public figure’s day. We haven’t seen it yet, but there’s going to be a generation that comes up where the new trend will be complete anonymity. It’ll be cool to have never posted anything online, never commented, never opened a webpage or a MySpace, never Twittered. I think everyone in the future is going to be allowed to be obscure for 15 minutes. You’ll have 15 minutes where no one is watching you, and then you’ll be shoved back onto your reality show. I think Andy Warhol got it wrong.

Comedian Patton Oswalt, on the future of people and the internet.

I read this and thought, “I need to post this online.”

When I do morning radio to promote a show, there’s always the Morning Zoo guy, and out of one side of his mouth he’ll say, “You know, normally I don’t think chicks are funny, but you’re pretty funny.” To which, I always say, “Really? Would you say that to a black person, “Normally I’d think you were lazy and shiftless, but you seem to work hard?”” And they always just go to commercial.
