We can't forget All Things Comedy, but the most important part of the show are the fans who drive along with us each episode. Thank you to all the riders out there!

It's me, Chris Fairbanks, co-host of Do You Need a Ride? with Karen Kilgariff. I realized today that I'm just going to write these in first person and stop pretending to be a third party, like people do when they type up a resume or call in as a fake personal assistant to a comedy club. I just wanna let you listeners know that this episode with Erin Foley is probably my favorite DYNAR yet. Everyone was on point, and it was like a party in a car. She's so funny. Enjoy!

Karen and Chris pick up Patrick Keane, much like a gigolo, just west of Los Angeles' downtown area. In the car, while recording, they talk with him about all things pertinent to life. Yes, all of life's subjects. Ultimately, he's brought to The Monty Bar, where they then record his set at a show there. Patrick Keane is hilarious, and the proof is at the end of this episode. http://astrecords.com http://shop.rooftopcomedy.com/album/fairbanks http://allthingscomedy.com/ You can Support ATC this mo...

Jamie Lee gets picked up all Uber style by Karen and Chris, in Karen's dangerous Honda Fit (Karen is a good driver, it's just that it's a very tiny car), for a mobile podcast, slash, ride to her home. Jamie is a pure delight. She's smart as a whip, funny as hell, quick as the dickens, and cute as a bell, and makes for a terrific guest on an episode that's perhaps, and I hate to say this so early in the game, one of the best Do You Need a Ride episode's ever.

Karen and Chris pick up Andy Kindler at a high profile Hollywood entertainment meeting that he went directly to, from LAX, on his own accord. At which point they pick him up in their Accord. That was a hilarious joke. Andy is so quick and so funny, this is an episode you will no doubt have to listen to more than once. Karen and Chris are on point too.

(They were going to pick him up at the airport, but had an emergency Honda maintenance issue that is too boring to get into, so they met Dave at his place and drove around his neighborhood.) We cover animation, peanut voice-over work, the reasons cats pee on fresh laundry, and pan sexual orgy parties. David is so very quick and funny, and has a...

Chris' father Jim drives him to the little MSO airport in Missoula, Montana after visiting the beautiful Big Sky Country for his best friend's wedding. Chris's dad talks about his interviewing of Jim Jones right before the guy made his followers drink poisoned Kool-Aid, in what was a famous example of how 'absolute power corrupts absolutely'.

Karen and Chris, out of respect for our nation's Labor Day, refuse to bother any potential comedian guests with the labor of being on their podcast, assuming also, that LA's comedians are all off relaxing at one of the many potential beach parties Southern California has to offer. Karen has a work related indoor party, so Chris drives her to it. He has no plans at all. Fortunately for you though, they are very funny in this episode. Enjoy.

Before we drop her off at Meltdown for her feature spot on Guy Branum's album recording concert, they decide to hammer out one of their most rapid fire, riff heavy broadcasts to date.

MATT KIRSHEN AND HENRY PHILLIPS Chris takes one of London's premiere stand ups of "Last Comic Standing" fame, Matt Kirshen, from the Hollywood Improv, to LAX, for what Matt classifies as a 'social' visit to Atlanta. We can only assume that means he is an international spy, as we know anyone young and dashing with a British accent is likely to be. Along the way, Henry Phillips hops in, and acts as guest host for this episode, until after they drop off Matt at a chaotic LAX, at which point Henry i...

Last night, Chris Fairbanks and guest Henry Phillips, picked up co-host Karen Kilgariff for her show in downtown Los Angeles. So for a second, Henry was the co-host, then transformed into the guest once Karen boarded the Honda. It's very futuristic and confusing. From there, they head to an art gallery comedy show with bad acoustics and an awkward host and Karen and Henry both do a song or two. Then we drive home, and reflect...and maybe do some good old fashion shit talking. Enjoy! http://astre...
