The question arises that has pondered man’s mind since the beginning of time…Do dogs prefer to sniff ass or cocaine? Chris Iacono argues Warren Holstein that they would rather sniff cocaine.

Ep. 741: Comical Radio- The French Invasion

Yo, Hammer! Jim Breuer called in with some depressing news about fame: once you get on Saturday Night Live, it only gets worse.

Ep 737 Part B: CR Classic- Here He Comes to Save the Day: The Mighty Male Stripper is On The Way

Starting off part two of Comical Radio Classic was Bobby Slayton, who unexpectedly showed up, guns blazing, ready to insult everybody.

Following Bobby's tirade was a calm, cool, and collected call-in from Bob Zmuda, Andy Kaufman's co-conspirator and creator of Comic Relief. Zmuda "Revealed!"

Danny and Chris talk to Dave about his ongoing dabbling in heroin. They also try to get to the root of why Dave is the way he is. Blame America!

Looks like Joe is back to his normal nervous self. Joe's anxiety about flying, being on a cruise ship, and going to comedian Christmas parties is off the charts this week. Mama Matarese calls in to talk about rushing Joe to the pediatrician after his first pot-induced anxiety attack at a wee young age. She suggested a little Rocky 2 therapy for Joe on cruise ship gigs (cue that corny theme, picture Joe running up the Philadelphia Museum's stairs and conquering his anxieties, oh forget it).

Fixing Joe Ep 5: Lee Camp & Dr. Matt Bellace

This week, Joe is still struggling. It's a constant struggle with this guy! But at least Joe isn't so much of a Debbie Downer today. Or a Negative Nancy for that matter. The big questions for this episode are: How much money is too much money to invest in his career? Should Joe hire a personal assistant? Is there a place Joe can hire a nerd squad to take his career to that next level? Would this make family life more enjoyable? Is this blog Socratic or what? Joe's guest for episode five are psyc...

Ep. 731: Comical Radio- Legends, Founders, and Originals

Comedy Legend (or "Main Man" to make him feel less old), Dom Irrera floated into the studio on a cloud of xanax, popped some fresh scrips with Chris Iacono and Myka Fox, and waxed philosophical about his love for The Beatles, his hatred of Michael Jordan, and the extreme insecurity of fellow comedian Bobby "the pitbull" Slayton. As soon as Irrera explained what a great friend Charles Barkley is, David Kasten announced he was a jerk. And the winner for best weed goes to.... CHEM DOG! High Times c...

On a weirder note Gawy called in and Chris abruptly questioned his poetry publishing credentials. The show wrapped up with a special guest visit from the one and only Charlie Murphy.

Career and family, a balancing act as old as civilization. Where does one start and the other begin? Does the traveling comedian have time for both? Could a 2nd child hold union together or tear it apart? And WHERE THE FUCK is Marc Maron?It's all good, we got a last minute replacement plus a few lbs as a kicker.
