The last live show from Laffcast is tonight. :(

Hello, Darling. There's no Stranger Radio this week because I'm all kinds of "F everybody" today and can't even stand the idea of talking to a stranger. Strangers are gross.

Tonight is really it. It's really the last TPAH from Laffcast. That makes me sad.

I'm not going to share a classic episode with you today, as it's a day of mourning. Make sure you watch tonight over on The Passive Aggressive Hour Facebook page. They're having a 2 hour special to wrap up the Laffcast residency. I've heard who the guests are going to be and I'm here to tell you that it's going to be action packed. Join me in the chat and we can cry together.

Oskee Waaaaaaah Waaaaaaaah.

May14, 2015 Episode 32
Cast: Steve Rees. John Kensil, Dr. Frielgood, Midnight Martinez, Nick Vollmer
Guest: Chip Chantry

Hi there! I hope your Thursday is going great. If not, hold on to your hat, Darling! We've got a magnificent classic TPAH. Dude. Chip Chantry is on!!! YAY!!

This is one of those episodes that I'm going to say you have to just listen to. It starts off with John's dad, Mr. Kensil reading the Goddamn Tweets. Yes, it's as awesome as it sounds. Then, there's a whole conversation with Chip about comedy.  Incredible stuff going on.

Put this episode on right now and soak it all in.

Tomorrow night is the last The Passive Aggressive Hour. Don't panic though, Darling. There's new things on the horizon for TPAH. My people on the inside have let me know that there's going to be an announcement tomorrow night about the future of the show. We have to just wait. That's the hardest part. The waiting.

Enjoy this perfect talk show of an episode and catch the live show tomorrow night at 9-ish East on the Facebook page.

Ugly Romanian Goof

May 7, 2015 Episode 31
Cast: Steve Rees, Dr. Frielgood, Midnight Martinez, Nick Vollmer
Guests: Chris Curtis, Chris Morganti, Christian Alsis, and Bradley Beck

Hello, Darlings! Oh boy. I've been neglecting my little blog. There's so much life going on right now, it's crazy. My time is getting wrapped up in all kinds of good stuff, but Excitement Corner is paying for it. No more!! It's back to the top of the priority list.

Since this is the very last week for TPAH from Laffcast, it's important that we take another listen and relive all the fun. I can't wait to find out what's next for TPAH. The last couple of months leading up to the Laffcast closing have been an emotional roller coaster for all of us. I wish they'd stop dragging my heart around.

Let's get in to this incredible episode of The Passive Aggressive Hour. I've been informed that this is Steve's favorite show. I can see why. It's fantastic.

There's a ton going on!

They kicked things off with Dr. Frielgood filling in on the Goddamn Tweets. Amy Shumer was mentioned in a tweet and Steve gave her a big 'ole "mmmmmmm". Ugh and also Ick.

Chris Curtis completely KILLED on the door test! Oskee Wee Wee, Chris! That was awesome.

We get another update on Christian's balls. Oskee Wee Wee, Christian!

Brad got to see Baby Spice up close and personal while he was living in France. Steve's in love with her, so it makes for a good story to tell on TPAH.

There's tons more talk happening amongst the guests, but then Chris Morganti pulls out a screaming rubber chicken and all holy hell breaks loose!

You guys, the talk turns to Steve's erotic fan fiction novel about Nancy Grace, "50 Shades of Grace". Nick and Brad each read an excerpt. Oh.My.God. It's hot. He's got to finish that, make an audio book and then give it to me for Christmas. It's hot like lava.

I had to pause for a second to cool off. Back to business.

We find out that Chris Curtis says the Oskee Yell out loud when he listens to the show. Aww!! I love that. Me too, Mr. Curtis!

Guess what! Volodymyr has been Bradley Beck this whole time! Whaatt??? That's one of my favorite callers ever. Great work, Brad!!

This is one of the very best episodes. Easily in my top 5. There's some easy, breezy, yet hilarious talk to finish things off. 

Midnight Martinez finally chimed in. If you've been following the show from both ends and you're caught up with the live shows, you know that he's been absent. I think it's because the move to Friday night conflicted with his weekly comedy show. I don't know that for sure, that's just my theory. Either way, I totally miss him. He always brings some fun.

I've got some picks for alternate show title:
"My fiance was murdered. I'll have the veal."
"Err on the side of Samoan."
"To quietly bone."

I hope your Tuesday is going good and is made better with a classic TPAH!

Enjoy episode 31!

Show description: It's a packed house, as the guys welcome comedy super-fan Chris Curtis, top stand up comedians Christian Alsis and Chris Morganti, and top comic storyteller Bradley Beck, and a screaming chicken. It's all that matters on the only podcast that matters.

50 Shades of Grace

April 30, 2015 Episode 30
Cast: Steve Rees, John Kensil, Dr. Frielgood, Nick Vollmer

Hello Darlings! Happy Sunday morning! Happy Mother's Day! I hope you're enjoying your day. If you're a mom, I hope your stupid family is doing nice stuff for you.

We've got a hot one today. This TPAH blast from the past is freaking ridiculously silly. Stephen Hawking and Elliott Gould were great guests that started the show off with huge laughs. Oh that Elliott Gould!

John shared the hilarious observations his dad made about people he saw on the way to a doctor appointment. Mr. Kensil was awesome.

Next up is porn talk. Oh boy. How did people ever handle the scenario where you have to go to a store, pick out a XXX feature presentation, and then take it to a actual human being to pay for it? Can you imagine? How do you even look the person in the eye? I'm having an anxiety attack just thinking about it. Now my left eye is twitching. What if you didn't return it on time? Did they call you and leave a message on your answering machine that your porn is over due? Gee whiz.

The sexy talk continues with Steve's big announcement. He was working on his first novel that was supposed to be released that summer, "50 Shades of Grace". It was going to be erotic fan fiction about two of Steve's favorite celebrities. Nick Vollmer stepped in to read excerpts. Damn it! For personal reasons, I wish Steve just read them himself. It's hot stuff. You're going to have to towel off after you hear this. He should really get back to work and finish this. It's juicy! I think I'll throw on my Nancy Grace wig and see if I can inspire him to write some more when he gets home today. Sorry. I'm distracted now.

Ok. Back to the show. Luckily, Stephen Hawking chimed in next.

A caller has a steamy fan fiction excerpt to share and gave me a pick for alternate show title, "Famous People Fucking Stories".

In preparation for the show, Nick had gone in search of fan fiction that wasn't erotic. He found some Flintstones, 60 Minutes, and Inspector Gadget fan-written stories. Surely, those can't be sexy, right?

John has notes to share and brings us another pick for alternate show title, "Invaded By A Camel Mechanic In Her Rear End". And another, "Strap-on Pterodactyl".

I told you this was a silly one.


Enjoy episode 30!

Show description: This week, it's all about fan fiction. Elliott Gould airs his comedy grievances, Stephen Hawking guest hosts the show with his own Passive Aggressive Hour fan fiction. Steve makes a major announcement. Nick tries to prove that not all fan fiction is erotic. Michael Keaton. It's all that matters on the only podcast that matters.



Have a great Sunday!

Night of a Thousand Virgins

April 23, 2015 Episode 29
Cast: Steve Rees, John Kensil, Dr. Frielgood. Nick Vollmer
Guest: The Lengendary WID

Hello! I hope you're having a great day. Take a break for an hour and get in to this great TPAH from 2015. It's a WID episode!!

YAY!! It's Legendary WID time! He is just the greatest. I've heard rumors that there is documentary about him out there somewhere. I don't understand why it's not available to watch, rent, or buy. I would do all three of those. If anyone knows how to get their hands on it, please let me know. I can't get enough of WID's stories about his incredible life.

Every single time he's in, we learn more about him. On this TPAH we learn that he's one of seven kids and he's the middle. He claims his siblings are all funnier than him. Can you imagine? Seven WIDs? That's got to be the most fun family ever.

We also hear all about the *Laff House and his time there running the open mic and keeping people in line. I love that WID had to pull Kevin Hart off stage. It also always kills me that if WID didn't like your name or had a hard time pronouncing it, you were damn sure going to change it. They didn't get in to that in this episode, but a previous guest that had some juicy drama with TPAH changed his name because WID had a hard time pronouncing his real name. I love that. Can you imagine being so cool that people just change their name because you said so?

WID shares a story about starting his career performing with go-go girls at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park. He'd see Clarence Clemons there. Maybe Bruce Springsteen was there, but WID can't be bothered. Talk of Springsteen lead to my pick for alternate show title. "Born to Pun".

There's SO much going on in this episode. Everyone was really great, but when WID's there, it's a WID episode.

Enjoy episode 29!


Show description: The Legendary Wid comes back to the show and talks about running an urban comedy show, Norman Mailer, and puns galore. It's all that matters on the only podcast that matters.

*The Laff House was an "urban" comedy club on South Street in Philadelphia, Kensilvania. It's been closed for a few years now, but it was a cool place. I just tried to look it up, apparently it's reopened somewhere else. https://www.facebook.com/thelaffhouse/

Have a great day, Loves!

Sweetsie Says Hi

April 16, 2015 Episode 28
Cast: Steve Rees, John Kensil, Midnight Martinez, Nick Vollmer
Guest: Chris Morganti

Happy Saturday, Gorgeous! I hope you're having a terrific weekend.

I've been very neglectful of Excitement Corner. This past week was crazy. There were great things going on, but also an entire day was lost to a wretched whore of a headache. I'm glad you're still here. We're back on schedule now.

For our classic TPAH today, we've got a freaking hilarious episode starring most of our beloved regulars. Chris Morganti is still listed as a guest. As long as he's there, we're happy. There's no way to not have a good time with this line up. Some of my favorite shows are when it's just them. If Dr. Frielgood had been there, all would be right with the world. Of course we love when there's guests or something outrageous happens, but the episodes when it's just these guys are wonderful to listen to. This is one of the funniest episodes ever.

The first thing we learn is that Steve and Chris ran into each other at something called The Dirty Show at Helium. Steve was performing. Chris was just chillin. It feels weird that I've never seen Steve do stand up. Maybe one of these days he'll do it again. I've heard him on the TDTF cd. Chris Morganti is on there too. Freaking good stuff! Hit me up and maybe I'll sell you a bootleg copy. (Of course, I won't.) Maybe we should talk those guys into re-releasing it. Hhmmm...something to think about.

Back to it. Talking about The Dirty Show brings up a fun conversation about dirty stuff and gives me my first pick for alternate show title: Steve Reach-Around.

Next, we hear that Steve went back to the scene of the BYOB scandal with Wacky Josh from the great Podcheese. They were there for Nerd Comedy. Not to perform, but for....? Wait. Steve doesn't say why they went there. Maybe Josh WAS performing? I can't imagine any other reason. Anyway. Who cares? The headliner was some broad who's whole deal was she's married to a Jewish guy and they're poor. So, she goes on to talk about how weird it is that a Jewish dude is poor and they have people from other ethnic groups do all of the stuff that a lazy comic would say is typically done by Jewish foLks. It sounds like her act is just a list of stereotypes. At one point she says, "We have black guy do our taxes!".  Steve thought that last line was funny and he laughed out loud. So, while she's still on stage with a mic in her hand, she says, "I was trying to get Steve to laugh all night. Of course I had to say something racist to do it." THIS bitch. Steve's the racist in this scenario? That's the move in 2015? Say a bunch of racist shit on stage and then call the one person that laughs a racist? Yo. Hold my earrings! Just kidding. She sounds like a real peach. Oof!

This all leads to more fun talk. I'm dying laughing listening to it. You will too! The comedy advice they get from noncoms is hilarious!

John has a hilarious Mr. Kensil story!

Next up is Nick's phone scam story. Before we get in to it though, I have something to say.

Just Sayin: Jesus! The volume on the goddamn phone call is so low! This happens WAY too much. I have to crank up my headphones to hear these things. Then, when the live audio comes back I jump out of my freaking skin because it's so loud. People who are in charge of these things, make sure the audio on the recording or the phone call is the same as the live cock-a-doody mics! I don't know how complicated that is or what it entails, but it's your job to know and to do it.  For fuck's sake. I literally just peed a little. Christ, Jeff. Shit. C'mon, man. Dang.

I've calmed down. Let's hear Nick give this phone scammer the business. It's fantastic!!

A Nigerian prince jumps into the phone scam talk. He's looking for help getting his jokes released. Oh my god. I love when an international call comes in! The funniest people from around the globe are TPAH fans.

Then there's more Nick vs Scammer fun! Such good stuff. Holy crap. This is great. I had to listen twice. I can't stop laughing.

There's talk of another Laffcast show host throwing shade. It's fun, but I don't care about anything other than Nick's scammer recordings. My day is made. That will stay with me for a very long time.

I'm worn out from laughing. Have a wonderful Saturday, Darling!

Enjoy episode 28!

Show description: Chris Morganti, top stand-up comedian, comes back. Nick shares audio of attempted scams on his bank account. John shares tales of the plumbing trade, and the guys tell tales of post show audience interaction. It's all that matters on the only podcast that matters.

We're still in this weird block of shows that are missing from Stitcher. We don't mind going to Laffcast though. Here's the link.
