OPB- A Laugh A Minute!

I made all of my mother's dreams come true by appearing on an NPR affiliate! Last Thursday, I spent some time in the OPB studio with Emily Harris, David Miller, Auggie Smith, and Ron Funches. Anyone interested in hearing it can download it here. I got to talk to Andy Norris, who heads up Manzanita's weekly Laugh-In, where they posit that standing in the street and laughing like a**holes for five minutes is just as fun as seing a comic that tickles your fancy and makes you laugh. The Oregonian covered this phenomenon this week here!

Postscript: The Portland Mercury heard my abuse on the radio (of course, when I said "Portland Mercury", what I meant was "local alternative media") and responded with a sweet blog on it.

A Nice Portland Comedy Article On Oregon Live.com!

A nice article on Portland comedy and the Bridgetown Comedy Festival, plus a nice name-check for your humble narrator, can be read here!

Auggie Roast!

Auggie Smith Roast! The very funny Auggie Smith is getting the what-for on Monday, November 17th, at the Fez ballroom at 8:00- his nearest and dearest will FINALLY be letting him know what we really think of him. Portland luminaries Susan Rice, Troy Thirdgill, and Art Krug will be taking a turn, along with about a dozen others, including one Virginia Jones- I think the attendance could max out on his ex-girlfriends, but you might be able to get a seat if you were really nice.
