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.
