    Observational Stand-Up On Phones Family And Food by Headliner/Actor Larry Miller

    Send us Fan Mail A lot of stand-up ages fast. This one doesn’t. We’re dropping you into a full-length Larry Miller set recorded live at Laughs Unlimited in the early 1980s, back when Larry was still “getting his chops” and already sounding like a pro. Before the tape rolls, I share why I’m featuring a single extended set instead of our usual mix: Larry is that rare comic who can take one everyday idea and keep heightening it until it becomes a full story you can’t stop picturing. Larry’s observational comedy starts with phones and the strange little ways technology messes with our heads, from busy signals that last all day to the spooky moment you pick up and someone is already there. Then he turns domestic life into a chain of sharp, relatable snapshots: bathroom timing, the secret panic moves people make, arguing over something as petty as the color of toilet paper, and even a jab at “healthy” sweeteners that feels weirdly timeless. From there, the set opens up into bigger stand-up storytelling about family and growing up. You’ll hear holiday humor about sneaking back into your parents’ house, the late-night magic of mom’s fridge compared to a guy’s refrigerator, a blast of childhood nostalgia, and a brutally funny nightmare where your parents come home early while the party is still raging. The closer becomes an extended skiing disaster that ends with a “real secret” that’s both a perfect punchline and the kind of advice you remember. If you love classic stand-up comedy, comedy club recordings, and the craft of building a story onstage, hit play. Subscribe for more interviews and sets, share this with a friend who needs a laugh, and leave us a review with your favorite Larry Miller moment. Hosted by: R.

    Mark Schiff & "The Funniest Men in the Universe" – New York Comedy at Its Best

    Send us Fan Mail A $5,000 lunch. A 30-year promise. A frozen walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to make the new year feel real. R. Scott Edwards sits down with comedian Mark Schiff for a warm, hilarious time-capsule of stand-up comedy history that starts in New York at The Comic Strip and stretches all the way to arena-sized shows with Jerry Seinfeld. If you love comedy stories that actually explain how this business works, you’re going to get a ton out of Mark’s memories and the hard-earned lessons underneath them. We talk about the crew Mark called “the funniest men in the universe” and the New Year’s Day breakfast tradition that kept friendships alive through careers, travel, and chaos, including one year that turns into an international adventure. Then the tone shifts to something more personal: Mark shares how he quit drinking during a booked week at Laughs Unlimited in Old Sacramento, and we dig into that strange truth every working comic knows, the stage adrenaline that can carry you through sickness, stress, and doubt when the audience is waiting. From there it’s pure “life on the road” gold: comedy condo disasters, long-distance phone scandals from the pre-cellphone era, and prank stories from touring. We also get a behind-the-scenes moment from the Seinfeld tour when Jerry gets food poisoning before a packed theater and Mark is told to go out and keep the show alive. Plus, you’ll hear a full Mark Schiff stand-up set with sharp bits on 99 cent stores, Costco, parenting grown kids, and marriage. If you enjoy the show, subscribe, share it with a comedy fan, and leave a review so more people can find it. What’s the best or weirdest tradition you’ve kept with old friends? Hosted by: R.
