Episode description

What's the difference between satire and political humor? Do insult comics still exist, other than Don Rickles? Why do some people find Kathy Griffin hilarious, but Chris Rock unlikable? Isn't that a little ass-backwards? There are many different ways to be funny, and even more ways to be painfully UNfunny. We explore some of the former, and listen to some examples of the very best comics alive today.
