Klantrecensies
Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast--Excellent!
As a professional comedian, I go to this podcast as much if not more than WTF with Marc Maron. Gottfried and his co host Frank Santopadre document the past of comedy with respect and irreverence as much as Maron takes on the present with cynical aplomb. Gottfried's podcast is the best!
